Veteran Nigerian singer Innocent “2Baba” Idibia is back in the spotlight following a quiet traditional wedding ceremony with his new partner, Natasha Osawaru, which has stirred a mix of emotions online.

“Traditional marriage is always a special day of joy, I have never seen where a man will be looking unhappy on his traditional wedding day. Did you people not notice ? Look at his face. Please, let us pray for 2Baba. People are always happy on their traditional marriage, It has reached 2Baba’s turn, He frowned face. God told me that this marriage will not last two years, if 2Baba doesn’t go and apologize to Annie,” Maduagwu said this in his recent Video on Instagram and he also wrote it.
