They alleged that he might have been abducted after reportedly leaving home and remaining unreachable for 72 hours.
The petition, signed by Wilson Anuge on behalf of the law firm Anuge, Anuge & Co, was submitted shortly after 2Baba’s mother, Rose Idibia, pleaded with his lover, Natasha Osawaru, the Deputy Majority Leader of the Edo State House of Assembly, to release him.

Mrs Idibia alleged that Ms Osawaru cast a spell on 2Baba, influencing his decision to propose to her.
She insisted that the singer was not in the right frame of mind when he made the proposal to the 30-year-old lawmaker.
However, a viral video showed the ‘African Queen’ crooner shopping at a hair store alongside Ms Osawaru on Saturday.

Background
The 49-year-old music icon has remained in the public eye since announcing his separation from Annie Macaulay, his wife of 12 years.
His engagement to Ms Osawaru became a trending topic, dominating social media discussions.
The proposal drew significant attention, mainly because of the ongoing divorce and the striking similarities to his past engagement with Annie.
2Baba proposed to Ms Osawaru, a graduate of Igbinedion University, Edo State, in an intimate gathering among friends.
The moment unfolded as they danced inside a house, with the singer performing a song before presenting a ring.
Ms Osawaru, who holds a Master’s in Film Production from Full Sail University, USA, embraced him warmly after accepting the proposal.
Speculation about their relationship trended online after 2Baba appeared surprised at the Edo State House of Assembly during a plenary session—an unexpected move that fueled dating rumours.
However, the singer put all doubts to rest by confirming on Instagram that he would marry Ms Osawaru.
