Popular Nigerian singer Innocent Idibia, known as 2Face or 2Baba, has officially married his new partner, Natasha Osawaru, in a private traditional ceremony held in Abuja. Natasha, a serving Edo State lawmaker, was captured alongside the singer in a trending video posing with their wedding cake.
The couple’s engagement was first made public in February 2025, just days after 2Face announced his separation from his former wife, Annie Macaulay‑Idibia. Natasha is the Deputy Majority Leader in the Edo State House of Assembly and the granddaughter of Chief Gabriel Osawaru Igbinedion
The wedding video, which has since gone viral, brought immediate reactions across social media and news outlets.
Fans and social media users have offered mixed comments since the video surfaced:
On X (formerly Twitter), some expressed disappointment. @SimoncoleB posted:
“Lol, Tuface don fall him hand big time. The gist in Benin is of disappointment…”
Lawyer Inibehe Effiong lamented that Nigerians seem more interested in celebrity drama than pressing national issues like rising data costs.
Comedian Ushbebe called for prayers for the singer, suggesting he looked lost in the relationship:
“Dem go hold legends hand dey carry am waka like tata…”
“He publicly announced his divorce few months ago and he is marrying another woman… The timing is insane.”
“Poor Annie. I hope she is surrounded by true friends and family…”
2Face and Annie were married for over a decade and have two daughters. Their separation announcement in January 2025 stunned many fans, and the singer quickly declared his intention to marry Natasha shortly after.
Natasha, who holds degrees in law and film production, has gained public attention not just for her political office but now as the singer’s fiancée
This marriage has stirred strong emotions—some congratulate the couple, while others criticise the timing and manner of the public display. Legal professionals and public figures continue to weigh in, making this more than just a celebrity affair but a national conversation.
