The family of iconic Nigerian singer Innocent '2Baba' Idibia has taken a drastic legal step against his wife, actress Natasha Idibia. This follows the circulation of viral videos showing intense altercations between the couple in both Nigeria and London.
Formal Petition Lodged with Police Authorities
In a significant escalation of the ongoing public dispute, 2Baba's family has submitted a formal petition to the Inspector General of Police. The document, dated and filed in early December 2025, levels serious allegations against Natasha. The core legal accusation is one of bigamy. The petition contends that 2Baba had not finalized divorce proceedings from a previous marriage before Natasha began publicly presenting herself as his new wife.
A Catalogue of Serious Allegations
The family's petition goes beyond the bigamy claim, outlining a series of other grievances. They have accused Natasha of physically assaulting the music star at various locations in Nigeria and the United Kingdom, incidents they believe were hinted at in the recently viral clips.
Furthermore, the petition urges the Assistant Inspector General of Police to investigate Natasha for alleged substance abuse, specifically mentioning "hard substances." This is not the first time such rumors have surfaced; prior to her traditional wedding to 2Baba, her demeanor had sparked similar speculation, which was reportedly corroborated by the singer's manager, Kaka, in a past interview.
The family has also requested police intervention to recover 2Baba's travel documents, which they claim Natasha has seized. They argue that her actions have caused the veteran artist significant public embarrassment.
Mixed Reactions from Fans and the Public
The family's decision to involve the police has ignited a firestorm of reactions online. While some fans expressed support for any action that protects 2Baba, others strongly criticized the move.
One social media user questioned the family's approach, asking, "Is 2face a baby? A man of 50 is still being breastfed!!!!" Another comment pointedly referenced a past incident, stating, "Didn't this same family publicly declare their 50-year-old son missing a few months ago?"
The situation has drawn comments from other celebrities as well, with singer Teni Apata reportedly composing an emotional song about the couple's very public strife.
This legal petition marks a new, more serious chapter in the long-running saga surrounding 2Baba's personal life. It remains to be seen how the police will respond to the allegations and what the implications will be for the high-profile marriage.
