Afrobeats icon Innocent “2Baba” Idibia trended after new and resurfaced videos circulated alleging a public altercation with his wife, Natasha Osawaru, and a subsequent interaction with London police.
The clips reignited a controversy and sparked fresh debate, pushing his name into top discussions across Nigeria’s X timelines.
What triggered the latest wave
A social media commentator, Tosin Silverdam, posted an alleged video said to show 2Baba being accompanied by officers after a dispute with Natasha in the UK. The footage followed an earlier clip where Natasha confronted 2Baba in a shop, accusing him of raising his voice at her, which had already fueled speculation about the incident’s nature and timing.
What the videos show and what’s unverified
- Alleged arrest clip: The latest video appears to show officers engaging 2Baba outside a retail setting before escorting him toward an exit; UK authorities have not confirmed an arrest, and mainstream outlets have treated the claim as unverified.
- Altercation clip: A prior video shows Natasha raising her voice, challenging why 2Baba was “raising his voice” at her, with varying reports placing the scene at a London shop or an airport on October 2, 2025.
“Verified footage purportedly shows the singer being escorted by officers… The arrest allegation remains unconfirmed by official channels or mainstream media.”
