2Baba parted ways with Annie, his wife of twelve years and the mother of his two daughters, Isabelle and Olivia, on 27 January.
Recent reports also indicated that the Benue-born artiste welcomed a child with his latest wife, Natasha Osawaru, a member of the Edo State House of Assembly.
Confession
Confessing, he said: “I have a confession to make, I have been making this confession everywhere I go now. To set the record straight, I don stop to dey do that kind thing, I don stop to dey give belle anyhow (I have stopped impregnating women anyhow, I have stopped.) Ask anybody now, and they will tell you I am innocent.
“I said I was going to tell everyone, so I am also telling you people in Benin because you all are my in-laws now. Let me explain it now before anything happens further.”
Additionally, 2Baba addressed the controversy surrounding his marriage to Natasha.
“We’ll continue the party now, but I still have many stories I want to tell you all, but I would not entertain all these internet people here. Natasha and I have already provided you with two years’ worth of content. There is no need to talk too much. Everybody is back to work, business, and doing what they know how to do best”, said 2Baba.

This newspaper previously reported that the couple made headlines after they were seen in a scuffle during an Instagram Live session hosted by Daddy Freeze.
Another viral video later emerged, allegedly showing the singer being arrested in the United Kingdom following a reported altercation with the lawmaker.
However, he debunked the rumours, insisted that he was fine, and appealed to the public to stop sending death threats to his wife.
