Rose Idibia, the mother of Nigerian music legend Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has publicly appealed to Edo State lawmaker Natasha Osawuru to release her son.

She made the plea in a viral video seen by 9News Nigeria and shared on social media Thursday evening.

Mrs. Idibia claimed her son is not in the right frame of mind due to his ongoing divorce from actress Annie Idibia.

Addressing Nigerians, Mrs. Idibia said, “Good evening, Nigerians. My name is Mrs. Rose Idibia, the mother of 2Baba. This message is for Miss Natasha Osawaru of Edo State. I’m calling on all mothers in Nigeria to help me beg her to free my son. My son is going through a divorce process, and he is clearly not in his right senses now. I know my son well. That is not him. Please, Natasha, the beads you put on his hand and on his neck, remove them and free him.”

Her plea comes just hours after a video surfaced showing 2Baba proposing to Natasha Osawuru. In the footage, the music icon was seen dancing closely with the lawmaker as friends cheered them on.

2Baba had earlier publicly admitted to being in a romantic relationship with Osawuru. The revelation follows his highly publicized separation from his wife, Annie Idibia.
