Famous Nigerian Afro-pop singer, Innocent Idibia, professionally known across the global music industry as 2Baba, has finally broken his silence to celebrate his son’s high school graduation. The veteran musician faced intense public criticism from internet users following his physical absence from the graduation ceremony in Europe.
The singer’s son, Justin Idibia, whom he shares with his prominent second partner, Pero Adeniyi, graduated from a prestigious London high school over the weekend. The mother shared several colorful pictures from the graduation ceremony on her social media page, expressing her immense maternal pride and joy.
“My heart is so full today as I celebrate my son, Justin, on his graduation from high school. Congratulations, Justin! We’re beyond proud of you and excited to watch you soar to even greater heights,” Adeniyi wrote on her Instagram page.
Singer breaks silence after internet scrutiny
The festive social media post immediately triggered a wave of negative comments from Nigerian commentators who questioned the musician’s commitment to his paternal duties. Many critics claimed that the singer had reduced his involvement in the lives of his other children following his recent marriage to his new wife, Natasha Osawaru.
Breaking his silence amid the widespread digital backlash a few days after the ceremony, 2Baba uploaded the graduation pictures to his official Instagram story. The veteran performer ignored the critical comments regarding his lifestyle choices and focused entirely on validating his son’s academic milestone.
“Congratulations son,” 2Baba wrote publicly to his child. Entertainment analysts note that the public scrutiny highlights the constant societal pressure exerted on African celebrities regarding their complex family dynamics.
