What the report says

Premium Times, via AllAfrica, reported on 9 August 2026 that Nigerian singer Innocent “2Baba” Idibia and his estranged wife, actress Annie Macaulay, have begun following each other again on Instagram. The social media change drew attention because it came amid renewed speculation about tensions in 2Baba’s relationship with Natasha Osawaru, a member of the Edo State House of Assembly.

The report said the pair had previously unfollowed each other after 2Baba announced their separation in January 2025. It added that online rumors of a reconciliation circulated in July after a video appeared to show them together, but the two later said the clip was old and not evidence of a reunion.

Premium Times also noted that checks on Sunday showed 2Baba no longer followed Osawaru on Instagram. The development came after a reported altercation outside a nightclub in Abuja during the opening of the “90s Lounge,” an incident that spread widely on social media. A viral video did not show what triggered the confrontation, and the newspaper said the available footage did not confirm the claims made by online witnesses.

The article said neither 2Baba nor Osawaru had publicly addressed the reported nightclub incident, and it emphasized that the Instagram changes do not by themselves prove the state of either relationship. The report places the episode in the context of a public relationship that has already attracted repeated attention since 2025, including a traditional wedding and other online disputes.
