Nigerian music icon Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has responded after a romantic video of him and his ex-wife, Annie Macaulay, resurfaced online and sparked fresh speculation that the former couple had reconciled.

The clip, which circulated widely across social media over the weekend, showed the former couple sharing affectionate moments as they hugged, kissed and danced to 2Baba’s hit song “Amaka” in a night club. Comedian Nasboi was also seen in the video as the trio enjoyed the moment, leading many social media users to believe the footage was recent and that the pair had reconciled.

Reacting to the rumours, 2Baba dismissed the claims with a brief message on his Instagram page.

“Abeg na old video o”, he wrote, adding laughing emojis.

His response came shortly after Annie also addressed the speculation on her Instagram Stories. The actress cautioned people against believing every post they come across online, explaining that the circulating clips were not new.

“Old videos circulating everywhere, false news everywhere!!! Believe everything u see on SM at ur expense! Wishing everyone a great, fruitful week ahead”, she wrote.

The resurfaced footage quickly attracted attention because of the history between the pair. 2Baba announced in January 2025 that he and Annie had separated after years of marriage. The announcement marked the end of one of Nigeria’s most closely followed celebrity relationships.

Months after the separation became public, 2Baba began a relationship with Edo State lawmaker Natasha Osawaru. The couple later held a traditional marriage ceremony in July 2025, making the recent circulation of the old nightclub video even more surprising to many followers who assumed it reflected current events.

The viral clip drew renewed attention to 2Baba and Annie’s past relationship, but both parties have since clarified that the footage is old and does not represent a recent development between them.

Award-winning Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage has shared new details about the circumstances surrounding the leak of her private video, saying the incident stemmed from a painful betrayal by someone she trusted.

Speaking during a recent appearance on The Breakfast Club, the Afrobeats star said she later discovered that the video was leaked as part of a bet involving her then-boyfriend and his friends.

“Apparently, it was a dare between him and his friends,” Savage said, explaining that she learned the truth later. She recalled that her former partner had initially told her the video was accidentally posted while he was trying to save it from Snapchat, but she eventually found out that was not what happened.

Reflecting on the experience, the singer said the revelation left her questioning whether the relationship had been genuine from the beginning.

“It made me think, ‘Was this person genuine from the beginning?'” she said, adding that the betrayal was more painful because it came from someone she trusted.

Savage admitted that, for a long time, she tried to hide how deeply the incident affected her.

“I never really dealt with it. I made jokes about it and even put it in my music, but I was actually a victim,” she said, explaining that she now recognises the emotional impact the incident had on her.

The singer also dismissed claims that the leak was a publicity stunt, insisting she would never deliberately put herself through such an experience. She added that pursuing legal action became emotionally exhausting because it meant repeatedly reliving the ordeal.

Savage revealed that the experience has also changed how she approaches her personal life. She explained that she is now more cautious about privacy and avoids meeting romantic partners in places where she cannot control the environment, citing concerns about hidden cameras and the need to protect herself and her family.

The private video first surfaced online in 2021 after Savage revealed she was being blackmailed over the clip. At the time, she refused to pay those demanding money to stop its release, saying she would not allow herself to be controlled through extortion.

Years after the incident, Savage says she now recognises the emotional toll it took on her, describing herself as a victim and reflecting on how the experience changed the way she approaches trust, privacy and relationships.
