Celebrities and social media users have slammed the action of Nigerian music legend Innocent Idibia, better known as 2Baba, as he reconfirmed separation from his wife, Annie.
In a video posted on his Instagram story, 2Baba confirmed his separation from his wife, Annie Idibia, after earlier stating in a now-deleted post that his account was hacked.
In a later turn of events, 2Baba posted two videos clarifying the situation. He confirmed that his account had not been hacked, contradicting the previous claim.
“Yo, bless some more people. Nobody hacked my accounts. Na me yarn weytin I yarn.”
“Yo, my people man, nobody hacked my account. Nah me talk weytin I wan talk. You understand? I come in peace”, he stated in the video.
Following the announcement of their split, the singer faced backlash from some celebrities and social media users who criticized his decision, while few rallied around him in support.
TV personality, Toke Makinwa, in a post responding to the singer’s post confirming his split from Annie, stated, “This is wrong on all levels, you should be ashamed for bringing this here. Bring it on, if you think she is alone; let me tell you here that you will have to fight us all.”
In a post on her own Instagram account, Makinwa disclosed that women should take a stand against any wrongdoing, as it affects all females and shared that the issue shouldn’t be brought online, especially during a sensitive time.
“I’m not one for too much talk, but what is wrong is wrong. But as a woman, if you sit on the fence on this one, if it misses, it will touch your daughter or any female in your family. No one is innocent, and if you want to bring the media into it knowing what is happening, we will fight for her.
“Nobody is asking anybody to stay in a situation that’s not serving them any purpose anymore. By all means, leave if you must but why bring this online, at this very moment? We know what is going on behind closed doors. The world doesn’t know anything, it’s already been hectic with opinions flying around and when I say we will fight for her.
“I’m not talking about the general public, A handful of people know the truth and time will tell. Timing is everything. Empathy is everything. You constantly preach love, and you cannot add to the narrative that’s out there when you know what is happening behind closed doors”, she stated.
Nollywood actress Mary Remmy Njoku, shared on her Instagram page, “Bro, Annie has a family o! Your sisters-in-law are many, and we’ve stayed quiet out of respect for her tough choices, but since you’ve decided to humiliate her at her lowest, no wahala. It’s your choice. Just make sure she’s healthy and okay. Because when the time comes, we’ll have plenty of questions for you!.”
Nollywood actress, Uche Elendu expressed disappointment towards 2baba’s public announcement of his separation from Annie.
