Hours after Nigerian singer Innocent Idibia who is popularly called 2Baba or 2Face announced his separation from his wife Annie Idibia, Netizens have dropped several reactions with some taking different sides.
LEADERSHIP recalls that 2face announced via a social media post on Sunday, notifying of separation with Annie for a while and recently filed for divorce.
Confirming the information, 2Baba made a video stating that his account was not hacked as was earlier suggested, saying he meant what he had said.
An X user identified as @Bayo Otedola said, “We all know 2face to be a very quiet and private person about his marriage and for him to come online to make such statement about his marriage means he’s seen enough. I wish the guy all the love and support he needs at this time. All the best 2baba.”
Another user identified as @Theo Abu said: Annie took advantage of 2face in his building career by tying him down. He could have achieved way more than this. Justice for 2baba.”
In the same vein, another user identified as @Oku also expressed that, “It is really difficult to see a grown man speak up honestly. He looks worn out like Pep Guardiola.”
While some male fans insisted that the singer would have probably gone through a lot in the marriage before making the shocking announcement, majority of the female fans have maintained that Annie spent most of her life supporting 2face.
LEADERSHIP recalls that media personality, Toke Makinwa has slammed the ‘African Queen’ crooner for publicly announcing their separation.
“This is wrong on all levels, and you should be ashamed of yourself for bringing this here. Bring it on. If you think she’s alone, let me tell you here that you’ll have to fight all of us,” she wrote.
Nollywood actress Mary Remmy Njoku berated the singer for “humiliating” Annie at her “lowest.”
Njoku said she and other members of Annie’s “family” had remained quiet out of respect for her tough choices.
She urged 2Baba to be prepared to answer questions when the time comes.
A female user identified as @Chiomabonny said, “First they groom you, then you lose yourself over them, they walk out at sunset (dump you). Annie was OBSESSED with 2Baba. How will she cope without him?
@ThatMary said, “Annie Idibia’s story is enough of a reminder to always choose yourself. Dear woman, choose yourself.“
2Baba and Annie got into a relationship at 15 and 24 years old respectively, they later married in May 2012, and they both have two daughters even though the singer has several children with other women.
