Nigeria: Natasha Osawaru Shares New Photo of Son With 2Baba Amid Marital Crisis

What the report says
Premium Times, as republished by AllAfrica, reports that Edo State House of Assembly Minority Leader Natasha Osawaru has shared a new photo of her child with Nigerian singer Innocent “2Baba” Idibia while rumours continue about the couple’s marriage. The image was posted on her Instagram Story on Wednesday, with Osawaru referring to the child as her “heartbeat.”
According to the report, Osawaru and 2Baba welcomed their first child together in November 2025, after a traditional wedding in Benin City. The couple also held a private naming ceremony, and the child had previously been kept out of public view. The new post showed Osawaru leaving home for legislative duties with the baby in a stroller, accompanied by a nanny, before carrying and kissing the child at the assembly complex.
The story comes against a backdrop of renewed public attention on the pair’s relationship. Premium Times said speculation intensified after an alleged confrontation at the opening of the 90s Lounge in Abuja weeks earlier, an incident that circulated on social media but was not fully explained by the available footage. The report also notes that 2Baba later spoke publicly at an event in Lagos, saying he had “seen trouble,” which added to interest in the situation. The article does not confirm any breakup or legal outcome.
