A tense altercation erupted between music veteran Innocent Idibia, widely known as 2Baba, and his estranged wife Annie Natasha at a high-profile event in Abuja on Friday night, with dramatic allegations of an attempted abduction now emerging.
The incident reportedly took place at the grand opening of 90s Lounge in Abuja, an event hosted by fellow music veteran Faze, where 2Baba was scheduled to perform, according to Daily Post. This marks the second physical confrontation between the couple after the singer was previously arrested over an alleged assault on Natasha.
What Happened at the Venue
A senior member of 2Baba's management team, speaking to Daily Post, confirmed the confrontation. According to the source, Natasha arrived at the venue accompanied by security operatives and a group of men described as thugs. The situation quickly escalated into a standoff involving the singer and members of his team.
The management source further alleged that Natasha and her entourage attempted to abduct 2Baba during the confrontation. The precise sequence of events leading to the clash had not been established at the time of reporting. It remains unclear whether anyone sustained injuries or if arrests were made following the incident.
Separation and Unverified Claims
The source added that 2Baba and Natasha had been living apart for more than two months before the confrontation occurred. Efforts to reach Natasha for her version of events were unsuccessful, and Daily Post stated it could not independently verify the account provided by the management team.
