2Baba and Natasha Osawaru were seen shopping together
Veteran musician, Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has been spotted shopping at a hair store alongside his new love interest, Natasha Osawaru.
This public sighting comes shortly after his family expressed concerns over his whereabouts.
A video that surfaced on Friday captured 2Baba and Osawaru casually browsing hair products.
Earlier, 2Baba’s family had reportedly filed a petition with the Department of State Services, alleging that the singer had gone missing.
His mother, Rose Idibia, also made a public plea to Osawaru, urging her to stay away from her son, especially since his divorce from his estranged wife, Annie Idibia, has yet to be finalised.
According to Rose Idibia, 2Baba is not in the right frame of mind due to the ongoing divorce proceedings.
This development follows a viral video released on Thursday, where 2Baba was seen proposing to Osawaru.
The clip showed the singer and the lawmaker dancing together before he presented her with a ring, embracing her in front of their friends.
Just a day before, the musician confirmed his relationship with Osawaru, igniting discussions across social media. He addressed the growing speculation in an Instagram video, stating:
In the video, he said in part, “Allegedly, I have seen so many things, so many people coming up with their own false narratives and malicious nonsense after I posted that stuff that I posted. Yes, I posted what I posted.
“Hon. Natasha has been dragged, she has been called all sorts of names, she has been labelled 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.”
Osawaru, a politician and member of the Edo State House of Assembly, represents the Egor Constituency under the Peoples Democratic Party. She was elected in April 2023 and hails from the Egor Local Government Area of Edo State. (Saturday PUNCH: Text, Excluding Headline)
