“This whole situation has gotten dangerously out of hand” — 2Baba breaks silence, slams family over fallout involving Natasha Osawaru

Nigerian music icon 2Baba has finally broken his silence, issuing a powerful statement accusing certain family members of deepening the already volatile public crisis surrounding his marriage to Natasha Osawaru. According to reports, the drama began after an alleged heated argument between the couple in the United Kingdom — a confrontation that reportedly drew the attention of UK authorities and led to a brief detention of the singer. The viral video of the altercation sparked outrage, speculation, and waves of social media commentary.

In a video he posted online, 2Baba confronted the creeping narrative that he was in need of rescuing. “This whole thing has gotten dangerously out of hand. I am not just going to be quiet anymore,” he said, underscoring his autonomy and agency as an adult capable of making his own decisions. He added that while his family claimed to be acting to “save” him, their interventions had instead brought more harm. “My family… has actually destroyed me and killed someone’s daughter’s character. Natasha is getting death threats right now,” he declared.

He acknowledged that like many marriages, his relationship with Natasha experienced quarrels, but insisted that what was unfolding went far beyond private disagreements. “Fine, we have had our quarrels — but who doesn’t quarrel with their spouses?” he asked. “This is getting out of hand. I am perfectly okay… I recently performed in Abuja, and a lot of people were there.” The implication was clear: he is functional, working, and unaffected by what many had assumed was a crisis.

Beyond his own wellbeing, 2Baba expressed deep concern for Natasha’s safety, claiming she had become the target of death threats and that the ongoing media frenzy was putting her at risk. He implored fans, friends, and family to “cease fire,” calling for restraint from those fueling what he described as a chaotic and harmful situation.

The fallout from the drama is significant. The involvement of a prominent family — including the public concern raised by his brother, Hyacinth Idibia — as well as interference from political and legal institutions, has further sensationalized the private dispute. In fact, following the viral altercation, the legislative body where Natasha serves was reportedly angered by the negative publicity, viewing the altercation as a black mark on their reputation.

Social media now erupts with divided opinions: some urging his family to step back, others calling for more intervention to ensure the safety and emotional health of everyone involved. Many fans are worried both for Natasha’s safety in the face of death threats, and for the long-term impact this family feud may have on 2Baba’s mental and public wellbeing.

But through it all, 2Baba remains firm: “I have the right to be with whoever I want to be with. I am not a child.” His statement aims to reclaim narrative control and push back against what he perceives as misguided interventions. At its core, this is a plea for privacy and respect — a plea for the public and his family to respect the boundaries of his personal life.

As of now, the singer has urged calm and called for a ceasefire — both from his family, friends, fans, and the media. Whether peace will return, or whether the drama will spiral further, remains uncertain. But what is clear is this: 2Baba has spoken, and he has made it clear he will not be silenced any longer.
