The ongoing marital drama between Nigerian music legend Innocent '2Baba' Idibia and his wife, Natasha Osawaru, has taken a new turn, sparking a passionate online debate. The controversy escalated when a group of Nigerian women took to popular media personality Daddy Freeze's Instagram Live, making a public appeal for men to step in and help "rescue" the Afrobeats icon from his marital situation.
Ex-Manager's Explosive Claims Fuel the Fire
The call for intervention followed a series of startling revelations made by one of 2Baba's former managers, identified as Kaka. In an interview with Daddy Freeze on December 1, 2025, Kaka painted a troubling picture of the singer's relationship with Natasha. He alleged that Natasha frequently stifled 2Baba's career growth and exercised significant psychological control over him.
Kaka claimed that while the singer was often quiet in Nigeria, he became more vocal about his desire for professional growth during tours abroad. The ex-manager stated that Natasha was reportedly concerned about 2Baba's fame, fearing it would make him harder to control. He described her behaviour as psychologically damaging, asserting it eroded the singer's confidence and impacted his mental health, which ultimately led Kaka to sever ties with the couple.
Airport Drama and a Surprise Live Appearance
The former employee provided a detailed account of a specific incident at the Lagos Airport before a trip to the United Kingdom. He alleged that Natasha caused a major disturbance by accusing 2Baba of leaving her behind. According to Kaka, the argument spilled over onto the plane, continued in the lounge, and persisted even after they arrived in the UK, with him repeatedly trying to mediate.
In a dramatic twist, 2Baba himself joined Daddy Freeze's live broadcast to address the growing controversy. This occurred after he and Natasha had a heated argument. However, the singer's appearance was brief, as he quickly exited the live feed, further heightening the tension surrounding the couple's very public saga.
Nigerian Women React: A Plea for Intervention
Following the viral spread of these events, a significant number of women voiced their concerns directly on Daddy Freeze's platform. Their central plea was for men in the entertainment industry and beyond to stand up and defend 2Baba. This unusual public appeal highlighted the depth of worry among some fans regarding the singer's well-being.
However, the call for a "rescue mission" was met with mixed reactions from the wider online community. Many social media users questioned the logic of intervening in the marriage of a man who has repeatedly stated he has found peace.
Notable reactions from Legit.ng's compilation include:
- @crownsandrubies: "Rescue an Okenye that said he found peace? Like how?"
- @ovitaira: "How can you say men should rescue someone that have peace of mind. Please leave them to enjoy their marriage in peace."
- @ese_luv_: "Una leave una problem Dey beg for help for person when no be una family member na wa ooo."
- @jumpman_alpacino: "Make poor man dey help rich man, Ori yin ti buru."
- @inimitimi: "Let him enjoy his peace please. Nothing dey streets."
This public division underscores the complex nature of celebrity relationships, where fan concern often clashes with the private boundaries of marriage. The saga continues to unfold, keeping 2Baba and Natasha as top trends on Nigerian social media.
