Edo Assembly member, Natasha Updates Social Media with Fiancé’s Surname, Idibia
Edo Assembly member, Natasha Osawaru has ignited speculation about her close relationship with Nigerian music icon Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, by adding his last name to her Instagram bio.
This move has fueled rumors about the nature of their connection, especially in light of recent controversies surrounding the singer.
Allegations of Diabolical Beads
Amidst ongoing discussions about 2Baba’s marital struggles, fresh allegations surfaced regarding supposed mystical influences linked to Osawaru. The singer’s mother reportedly urged the lawmaker to distance herself from her son, expressing concerns over the spiritual implications of beads she allegedly gave him.
In a viral statement, 2Baba’s mother was quoted saying: “My son is going through a divorce process, and he is clearly not in his right senses now. I know my son well.
That is not him. Please, Natasha, the beads you put on his hand and on his neck, remove them and free him.”
Osawaru Denies Claims, Explains Beads’ Origin
Responding to the allegations, Natasha Osawaru, in an interview with Nigerian journalist Stella Dimoko Korkus, dismissed any claims of diabolical influences. She clarified that the beads in question are of traditional and cultural significance rather than being tied to any form of supernatural control.
She elaborated, saying, “Those beads were given to me on my birthday; they represent a princess from a royal family. You know I am from the Igbinedion Royal Family. On my last birthday, my mother gifted me three beautiful beads, called ‘EZENEKA,’ which means ‘River that never runs dry.’ The pearl necklace 2Baba is wearing was given to me by my grandfather. It was a gift to him from the Queen of England when she was alive. My grandfather was a knight to the Queen of England.
“These are just traditional beads. 2Baba liked them and decided to wear them. There is nothing spiritual or diabolical about them. I did not place them on him; he saw them, liked them, and wore them of his own free will. If you observe, you’ll notice that he has always had a preference for beads and has worn several different ones over the years.”
Public Reactions and Ongoing Speculation
Following her clarification, public reactions have been mixed, with some people accepting her explanation while others remain skeptical. The controversy has reignited discussions about the influence of traditional symbols in modern relationships and celebrity culture.
Meanwhile, 2Baba has remained silent on the matter, choosing not to address the allegations publicly. As the situation continues to unfold, fans and observers are keeping a close watch on further development
Fuji music legend Saheed Osupa has reignited his feud with street-pop star Portable, declaring in a viral video that the younger artist will “still be dealt with”, but did not mention direct as to who he was referring to. This comes days after Portable publicly apologized for insulting Osupa during a copyright dispute.
The clash began on March 19 when Portable accused Osupa of reporting his song for copyright infringement after it sampled one of Osupa’s lines. Portable lashed out, calling the Fuji icon *”big for nothing,”* but backtracked a day later, pleading for forgiveness in a tearful video.
Despite Portable’s apology, Osupa’s latest remarks suggest the veteran musician hasn’t fully let go of the incident. The 55-year-old Fuji star, known for his sharp lyrics, delivered his message in his signature style—leaving fans speculating whether this feud is truly over.
Neither artist has issued an official statement, but the drama continues to spark reactions online. Will Portable respond, or has he learned his lesson? Only time will tell.
