Nigerian music legend 2baba has opened up about his split from his wife of over a decade, Annie Idibia.
While speaking on the recent episode of Nedu’s podcast, he said that they both gave it their best, but it just wasn’t working. The father of seven further said that why they aren’t together isn’t something he wants to discuss publicly.
He added that he and Annie understand each other, and he declared her an amazing woman.
“I think both of us gave it our best. Why we aren’t together today, it’s not something I’m going to start talking about here in public. Me and her, we get our understanding. She’s amazing. Like I said earlier, it just wasn’t working no more. That’s just it”.
2baba also spoke on his views about marriage. The legendary singer, while reflecting on the realities of broken relationships and unhappy unions, cautions against letting society or public opinion dictate personal happiness.
“This thing they call living in bondage is real. Many people have lived their lives very sadly. Without achieving their potential. Why? Because of the sadness and the heavy heart they carry.
If it’s glaring that things aren’t working, nobody should force themselves. Sometimes, it’s not even about constant fighting. It’s just that you’re not happy with each other. That’s a big problem”.
Also, in the interview, the music icon described the mothers of his seven kids as amazing. The singer especially gushed over Annie, whom he described as amazing and called ‘My Annie’. The father of seven didn’t fail to give a special shout-out to his woman, Natasha, describing her as amazing.
2baba, however, made it known that his children are his major concern.
Recall that in February that 2baba had announced his separation from wife of over a decade, Annie Idibia, via his Instagram page. He revealed that he and Annie have been separated for a while.
The singer has since moved on from Annie and is now engaged to Edo State lawmaker, Natasha Osawaru. The legendary singer revealed that he loves Natasha, and made it known that she had nothing to do with the breakdown of his marriage to Annie and claimed that he and Annie have an understanding.
While addressing those against his relationship with Natasha, 2face revealed that he and his ex-wife, have long been over, noting how people are judging him because he chose peace of mind and true love.
To prove his commitment to her, the father of seven had introduced his soon-to-be wife to the Idoma traditional leaders/king in Benue, where he comes from. The couple got blessings from the palace to the community.
The singer also took her to meet his mother and family members. The famous singer shared photos and videos of himself, his fiancée, and his mother.
