In a private yet dramatic traditional wedding ceremony—officially confirmed to have taken place on July 25, 2025—legendary Nigerian singer 2Baba (Innocent Idibia) married Honorable Natasha Osawaru. But a video clip of the officiating pastor praying that his new marriage “be the last bus stop” in his romantic journey immediately went viral, provoking both laughter and outrage.
At the low‑key Benue state wedding attended by close family and friends, Natasha stood elegantly beside 2Baba as the pastor addressed his well‑publicized past. With seven children from three different women, the minister prayed:
“2Baba, we know you’ve been marrying and marrying… but today, this marriage has come to stay.”
It was a prayer laced with humor, caution, and a clear message: enough is enough.
This isn’t the first time the singer’s love life has drawn headlines. His decade-long marriage to Nollywood actress Annie Macaulay ended in early 2025, a drama that played out publicly while he continued fathering children with multiple women.
Once the clip hit social media, reactions poured in:
- @AdaObi_01 quipped: “Even the pastor don dey tire. This prayer came straight from the depth of experience.”
- @OluDre_Realest begged: “Man just wan marry in peace, una still dey remind am of past sins. Let love win abeg.”
- @iamToluJay said: “Why do I feel this pastor just spoke the minds of all Nigerians? May this one truly last.”
Some defended the pastor’s candid approach—saying he was simply blessing a ceremony steeped in public scrutiny—while others felt it was inappropriate to bring up intimate history at a solemn wedding.
2Baba, one of Nigeria’s most celebrated music icons, officially tied the knot with Natasha Osawaru, a rising Edo State lawmaker and descendant of Benin royalty. Their traditional wedding in Benue was marked by cultural pageantry and royal blessings.
Natasha, who hails from a politically influential family, was warmly received by the Idoma community. The couple even received palace blessings shortly before the ceremony.
The pastor’s viral prayer—“Stop jumping from one woman to another”—swiftly turned this intimate wedding into headline fodder. Whether seen as a humorous shock or a spiritual warning, it’s reignited conversations about 2Baba’s past and whether this union can truly signal a fresh start. Stay tuned as drama continues to swirl around celebrity weddings and public perception.
