Confusion As 2Face Shares, Deletes ‘Help Me’ Post Amid Ongoing Marital Turmoil

Music icon Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, stirred widespread concern on Wednesday after a cryptic Instagram story reading “Help me” appeared on his verified account before being abruptly deleted.

The post, shared at a time of heightened scrutiny over his marital crisis and public controversies, triggered a wave of speculation among fans and observers. Although the message was later taken down, the incident has fuelled discussions about the singer’s wellbeing and the escalating tensions surrounding his private life.

2Baba’s unexpected Instagram story surfaced in the early hours, containing only the brief plea, “Help me.” The message quickly went viral, prompting alarm among followers who questioned whether the singer was in distress or facing an undisclosed crisis, then minute later, the post vanished from his account, leaving room for even more speculation about its origin and intent.

The development comes against the backdrop of a highly publicised marital breakdown and the ongoing controversy involving his estranged partner, Natasha Osawaru, a member of the Edo State House of Assembly.

The lawmaker is currently under scrutiny after the Assembly summoned her to appear before its Ethics and Privileges Committee over allegations of misconduct linked to a viral video showing a heated altercation with the musician in London.

Public reaction intensified after relatives, including 2Baba’s brother, made emotional appeals online urging the singer to “allow us save you,” a message many interpreted as a sign of deeper conflict behind the scenes. This has further raised concerns about the pressures the award-winning artist may be experiencing.

While 2Baba has not issued a detailed statement addressing the now-deleted post, the incident has reignited discussions about the emotional toll of public scandals, the weight of social media visibility, and the challenges celebrities face when private matters unfold under national attention.

For many Nigerians, the brief but unsettling post has underscored the urgent need for greater sensitivity and mental-health awareness in how the public reacts to the personal lives of public figures.

As observers await further clarity, the situation remains a reminder of how quickly a single social-media update can wake up nationwide concern.
