In brief
In a recent Instagram post, Nigerian music legend 2Baba announced his separation from his wife Annie Idibia, confirming they are on the path to divorce after years together.
The beloved couple, married since 2012 and parents to two daughters, have been seen as one of Nigeria's most enduring celebrity duos. The news has left many fans in disbelief, especially after they survived previous challenges in their relationship. 2Baba, who has played a pivotal role in the global success of Nigerian music, stated through a video that he and Annie had been separated for some time, despite a sudden deletion of his original post which he said was later misinterpreted. He emphasized his intention to hold a press conference to further clarify the situation and share his side of the story with fans and supporters worldwide. Interestingly, the couple’s social media presence reflects the split, as they have unfollowed each other online. Annie, an actress, has been open about the challenges in her marriage on a reality show, which included discussions of personal hardships. The couple’s love story began when Annie featured in the video for 2Baba’s hit song "African Queen," fueling the strong public interest in their relationship that has now taken a surprising turn.
