Abuja, Nigeria – Popular Nigerian singer Innocent Idibia, known as 2Face or 2Baba, made a notable appearance on Wednesday at the Edo State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal. He showed up with his new partner, Natasha Osawaru. Natasha, who is a lawmaker representing Egor Constituency in the Edo State House of Assembly and also serves as the Deputy Majority Leader, was elected under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The tribunal is currently set to announce its verdict on a petition submitted by the PDP and its candidate, Asuerinme Ighodalo. The petition seeks to invalidate the election of Governor Monday Okpebholo from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In January, 2Baba publicly announced his separation from his wife, Annie Idibia. His relationship with Natasha began to attract attention when he proposed to her in February, just weeks after the separation. Since then, the couple has been spotted together at various social events and shopping outings.
Recently, Natasha made headlines again after she updated her Instagram bio to include 2Baba’s surname, Idibia, indicating their growing commitment to one another. The couple’s public appearances have fueled discussions among fans and the media alike.
The outcome of the tribunal is awaited with keen interest as it could significantly impact the current political landscape in Edo State. The PDP is pushing against the APC’s hold on the governorship seat, aiming for a shift in power.
Social media platforms have been abuzz with reactions to 2Baba’s new relationship. Fans have expressed both support and skepticism, reflecting the complex nature of celebrity relationships in Nigeria.
