Celebrity Nigerian musician, Innocent Ujah Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has welcomed a baby girl with his wife, Natasha, a lawmaker in the Edo State House of Assembly.‎

In the brief announcement, Natasha expressed gratitude with the caption: “It’s a Girl”, followed by prayer emojis.

The new arrival brings the number of 2Baba’s children to eight, shared among four different women, with Natasha now becoming the fourth woman to have a child for the Afrobeats legend.

The child was delivered in an Abuja hospital last week Thursday night.‎

This delivery comes a few months after the singer and his wife, Annie Idibia, reportedly parted ways following prolonged marital issues.

Fuji music icon Alhaji Abass Akande Obesere and members of his crew were on Friday, November 21, 2025, attacked by hoodlums during a burial ceremony in Okitipupa, Ondo State.

The incident was confirmed in a statement issued by Obesere’s media manager, Ayonla Obesere Althentic, who disclosed that the assault began shortly after the musician concluded his performance and the team was about to depart.

He explained that multiple groups of touts surrounded the venue, with one group targeting him because he was holding a bag containing money.

“Despite our attempt to leave peacefully, my principal and I were aggressively confronted.

“They demanded that I hand over the bag. When I refused, a violent struggle broke out,” he said.

Ayonla recounted sustaining significant injuries, including a dislocated shoulder and several blows, some inflicted with a knife.

“While trying to get into the car, I was hit with a knife.“I cannot confirm a deep stab, but I suffered several blows and I’m in serious pain,” he added.

The attackers eventually overpowered him and fled with the bag of money.

Simultaneously, another group assaulted Obesere even after he attempted to calm the situation by giving out money.

Ayonla said that he managed to guide the musician into their vehicle to ensure his safety and access to medical attention.

He condemned the attack as “criminal and unacceptable,” noting that violence against performers and mourners at a burial ceremony should not be tolerated.

The media manager confirmed that the matter had been reported to the Okitipupa Police Division and called on authorities to conduct a thorough investigation and bring the perpetrators to justice.

Khadijat Lawal, a Senior Secondary School 3 student of the Government Comprehensive Girls Secondary School, Maga, Danko Wasagu Local Government Area of Kebbi State, which was attacked on Monday morning of November 17, 2025, said that the experience of that day will remain etched in her memory for a long time.

On that fateful morning, gunmen attacked the school and abducted 25 girls.

The student, who went into hiding shortly after the bandits arrived their school, narrated her experience:

She said that she on that day, she and other students were sleeping in their hostel when they heard people talking outside and attempting to force the door leading to their hostel open. She said this was a few minutes to 5.00am.

Khadijat added that a few minutes after that, they started shooting sporadically into the air and she and her two sisters rushed to hide in one of the school’s toilets.

“She added that when the bandits burst into the hostel, her two sisters panicked and came out from where they were hiding in the toilet and they were immediately marched out with other girls who had been taken from other hostels in the school.

She remained where she had locked herself up in the toilet until when parents and other people came to the school shouting and asking about the whereabouts of their children.

“My daughter refused to open the door until she heard my voice. She was lucky, but her other sisters are still missing. I’m worried and sick about their whereabouts,” said her father, Malam Lawal Altine.

About 24 hours after the abduction, parents were still gathered at the school premises hoping for the return of their children.

The mother of one of the abducted girls, Hajiya Rani Maga has not left the school premises since Monday morning when she heard of the incident.

She said that she will not eat until her daughter returns home.

Hajiya Rani, who could not control her tears, said she still finds it difficult to believe that her daughter had been abducted by the bandits.

She said, “I don’t think I can return home without my daughter. Every minute my mind is with her.

I don’t know what is going on with her or where they took her and I’m afraid because she is in the hands of bad people.

I know government has intervened and given us hope that our daughters will return to us; but how soon? I appeal to both the state and federal government to urge security agents to find our daughters as soon as possible. The longer they stay with captors the more dangerous the situation will be.”
