In a moment that has captured the attention of Nigerian social media and beyond, popular Nigerian musician Innocent Idibia, better known by his stage names 2Face or 2Baba, has proposed to Honourable Natasha Osawaru, a lawmaker from Edo State.
This development, which was captured in a video that went viral on Thursday, February 13, 2025, has stirred a significant amount of discussion and commentary across various platforms.
This comes after 2Face, a legend in the Nigerian music industry known for hits like “African Queen,” has had a tumultuous personal life, with his marriage to Annie Macaulay-Idibia ending in divorce announced in late January 2025.
The separation from Annie, after over a decade of marriage, had already been a topic of public discourse.
In the viral video, 2Face is seen with Osawaru, surrounded by friends, as they dance to the song “Unconditional Love” by Jah Cure.
The atmosphere is joyful, with onlookers cheering them on. As the dance concludes, 2Baba gets down on one knee, presenting Osawaru with an engagement ring, which she accepts amid applause and celebration.
This also comes just days after 2Face openly declared his affection for Osawaru on social media platforms, where he asked Nigerians to help persuade her to marry him, stating, “Now this is my world. Make una help me beg am to marry me.”
This public declaration followed his earlier statements clarifying that Osawaru had nothing to do with his marital split from Annie Macaulay-Idibia and defending her against accusations of being a “home breaker.”
Osawaru is a political figure, serving as the Deputy Majority Leader of the Edo State House of Assembly, representing the Egor Constituency under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Born on November 14, 1994, Osawaru comes from a notable family background, being the granddaughter of billionaire Gabriel Igbinedion. She is educated in both law and film production, with degrees from Igbinedion University and Full Sail University, respectively.
