By Nigerian singer, Innocent Idibia popularly known as 2Baba has broken his silence over now-viral reports that he impregnated a mystery woman.
It would be recalled that social media went into a frenzy after rumours emerged that the father-of-seven is expecting his eight child with one banker, alleging that it was the reason the singer penned a public apology to his wife, Annie Idibia, and his family for being an embarrassment to them.
“I beg y’all to pls just face me and cancel me anyhow. I’ve been a star for so long that my bulletproof vest is worn-out. I’m not quitting or suicidal or giving up,” he had written.
“I just want to go back to my default settings and denounce my role model status and make up lost time with my kids and give y’all music that will make u remember and understand why they call me 2BABA #GRATEFUL.”
But in a statement on Saturday, 2Baba’s manger, Efe Omorogbe dismissed the claims that the music star had extramarital affairs.
In the statement shared on his Instagram page, Omorogbe described the reports as “totally false” and “malicious”, saying it wasn’t the first time the fictitious banker would be linked to 2Baba.
“It is understandable for fans, friends and concerned members of public to get curious and seek to know why @official2baba posted an apology to his wife, @annieidibia1, family and management a few days ago,” he wrote.
“We would like to put it on record that the “why” is exactly what was explicitly spelt out in the same post-the pressure of almost a quarter of century of superstardom and a wish to focus on making music without the burden of high expectations of a role model.
“Reports of him getting anyone pregnant are totally false and malicious and we urge well-meaning media platforms and members of the public to completely disregard such. It is fake news,
“Many would recall that this fictitious banker character has been repeatedly getting e-pregnant for @official2baba every two or three years since 2014. There is no iota of truth in this allegation.”
