The Nigerian entertainment world is in turmoil following the shocking announcement from legendary musician Innocent Idibia, better known as 2Baba, regarding his separation from his wife, Annie Idibia.
The revelation, which has triggered an avalanche of reactions, has drawn notable responses from media personality Toke Makinwa and Big Brother Naija alum Khloe Abiri, among others.
The Instagram Bombshell
On January 26, 2025, 2Baba stunned fans when he posted on Instagram that he and Annie had been separated for some time and were now moving forward with divorce proceedings. He added that he intended to release a detailed press statement to clarify his position.
However, confusion followed when another post claimed his account had been hacked, casting doubts on the authenticity of the announcement. But just as speculations began to subside, 2Baba himself confirmed in a subsequent video that the initial statement was legitimate, silencing rumors of a hack.
Toke Makinwa’s Scathing Rebuke
In the wake of the announcement, Toke Makinwa did not hold back her criticism. She took to social media to lambast 2Baba for publicly addressing such a sensitive matter. “This is wrong on all levels,” she wrote. “You should be ashamed of yourself for bringing this here. If you think she’s alone, let me tell you here and now, you’ll have to fight all of us.”
Makinwa’s remarks quickly gained traction, resonating with fans who echoed her sentiment and applauded her for standing by Annie.
Khloe Abiri Calls for Reflection
Similarly, Khloe Abiri, former Big Brother Naija star, weighed in, expressing her hope that the announcement was a hoax. She passionately voiced her support for Annie, while criticizing the manner in which 2Baba handled the situation. “I hope this is just a prank because this isn’t the 2Baba we admire,” Khloe stated, urging the music legend to reconsider his approach.
A Social Media Frenzy
The announcement has sparked intense conversations across social media platforms, with fans and fellow celebrities rallying behind Annie Idibia. While some expressed disappointment in 2Baba’s decision to take such a private matter public, others speculated on the reasons behind the couple’s reported separation.
As the situation unfolds, many are left wondering how the iconic pair, celebrated for their enduring love story, will navigate this turbulent chapter in their relationship. For now, the public spotlight remains firmly fixed on one of Nigeria’s most beloved celebrity couples.
