Netizens, especially some fans of music legend, Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, have lashed at him for confirming romantic relationship with Edo lawmaker Natasha Osawaru, expressing his desire to marry her.
Natasha Osawaru is the Deputy Majority Leader of the Edo State House of Assembly and grand-daughter of Chief Gabriel Osawaru Igbinedion.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports tha the development has set social media abuzz, with mixed reactions from fans.
Many expressed dismay that the decision of the 49-year-old father of six to openly acknowledge his intention to marry another wife within two weeks of announcing his separation from his estranged wife, Annie, was unreasonable.
X user @SimoncoleB , said: “Lol, Tuface don fall him hand big time. The gist in Benin is of disappointment, the matter cast.
“Most Benin guys and girls dey shame on his behalf. so many voice note of insults and embarrassment flying all over Benin for this his matter.
“To the extent that he went to the House of Assembly. Well,it’s he’s choice anyway. What to do about Tuface
@fellownaijas said:“If at that level, the Hon. decides to get herself into the mess that is Tuface’s family life then she does so knowing fully well what she’s chosen. Not our business to be honest.

“Plus, this man has been in various relationships over the years and no be small man, why not spend some time alone for now and reflect.”
@vantage_suite wrote: “Can you see how 2baba, a recalcitrant, unapologetic and serial cheat who has fathered kids with several women despite having Annie, has asked to marry Honorable Natasha and she is happy to go on a journey with him.
“2baba is a hoe and Natasha can see it clearly. However, women have that thing where they believe they can change a man.
“Men will sweet talk you until it is time to walk the talk. Anyone who chooses to date or marry baba knows what she signed up for.”
@EdoVibeQueen wrote: “2Face, abi na Tuface, has never come out to stand up for his wife, Annie, at any point of their marriage. Just one week of people talking about Natasha, he don set ring light with Nigerian flag for back. Maybe he thinks he is now a honourable because he dey date honorable Natasha. He thinks it’s sexually transmitted? He set ring light dey do press conference, make dem leave Natasha alone. Wonderful”
