Give Me Grandchild, 2Baba’s Mother-in-Law Urges Him, Wife Natasha at 50th Birthday

Nigerian music icon Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba or 2Face, marked his 50th birthday in Lagos with family, friends, and loved ones, but the event took a heartwarming turn when his mother-in-law, Philomena Osawaru, publicly urged him and his wife, Natasha, to have a child together.

Speaking during the celebration, Mrs. Osawaru praised her son-in-law for his youthful looks and graceful aging.

“Innocent Idibia, at 50, you are looking 25. When some of us are praying to age gracefully, God has done it for you already. You will continue to age gracefully, in Jesus’ name. Amen,” she said.

She went further to make a playful but pointed appeal: “By the time we come next, we will see the baby crawling around.” The remark, delivered in a cheerful tone, drew laughter and applause from guests, underscoring the warmth of the family gathering.

While 2Baba, who already has children from previous relationships, did not give a public response at the event, the comment sparked media attention and conversations among fans about cultural expectations surrounding family life and childbearing in Nigeria.

The birthday celebration not only marked a milestone in the singer’s legendary career but also highlighted the close-knit bond between him and his in-laws, with Mrs. Osawaru’s wish adding a personal touch to the festivities.
