The mother of Nigerian music icon Innocent “2Baba” Idibia, Mrs. Rose Idibia, has made a public appeal for help, urging Nigerians to intervene and plead with Edo State lawmaker Natasha Osawaru to leave her son alone.
In a viral video circulating on Thursday evening, Mrs. Idibia expressed deep concern over her son’s well-being, stating that he is not in his right frame of mind due to the ongoing divorce proceedings with his estranged wife, Annie Idibia.
A Mother’s Plea for Her Son’s Freedom
Speaking in an emotional video, Mrs. Idibia implored Nigerian mothers to step in and help her beg the Edo State lawmaker to release her son from her grip.
“Good evening, Nigerians. My name is Mrs. Rose Idibia, the mother of 2face. This message is for Miss Natasha Osawaru of Edo State. I’m calling on all mothers in Nigeria to help me beg her to free my son.
“My son is going through a divorce process, and he is clearly not in his right senses now. I know my son well. That is not him.
“Please, Natasha, the beads you put on his hand and his neck, remove them and free him,” she pleaded.
2Baba’s Public Proposal to Natasha Osawaru Goes Viral
This comes in the wake of a shocking viral video that emerged earlier on Thursday, capturing the moment 2Baba proposed to Natasha Osawaru.
In the video, the singer and the lawmaker were seen dancing intimately at an event, surrounded by friends who cheered them on. Moments later, 2Baba pulled out a ring and presented it to Osawaru, after which they embraced passionately, solidifying speculations that their relationship had taken a serious turn.
This revelation has caused a storm on social media, particularly given that 2Baba and Annie Idibia’s separation was only recently made public.
2Baba Publicly Confirms His Love for Natasha
Just a day before his surprise proposal, 2Baba had taken to Instagram to confirm his romantic relationship with Natasha Osawaru, a revelation that set the internet ablaze.

In response to the speculation, 2Baba released a video, addressing the backlash and dismissing claims that Natasha was responsible for his split from Annie Idibia.
“Allegedly, I have seen so many things, so many people coming up with their false narratives and malicious nonsense after I posted that stuff that I posted. Yes, I posted what I posted,” 2Baba stated.
“Hon. Natasha has been dragged, she has been called all sorts of names, she has been labeled as a home breaker.
“She is a young, brilliant, amazing woman, and she had nothing to do with what is happening between me and Annie in our marriage. Yes, I love her. She is amazing, and she is cool. I want to marry her.”
