‘African Queen’ crooner, Innocent Ujah Idibia popularly known in music circles as 2baba has denied reports making the rounds that he has impregnated a fictitious banker.
The multiple-award winning singer who debunked the rumours in a statement issued by his management, Now Muzik, noted that the speculation gathered steam after 2baba posted an apology to his wife, Annie Idibia, family and management a few days ago.
The statement informed that reports of 2baba getting anyone pregnant are totally false and malicious and also urged well-meaning media platforms and members of the public to completely disregard such.

The statement issued by Now MuziK on behalf of 2baba reads thus in full; ‘‘It is understandable for fans, friends and concerned members of public to get curious and seek to know why @official2baba posted an apology to his wife, @annieidibia1, family and management a few days ago.
‘‘We would like to put it on record that the “why” is exactly what was explicitly spelt out in the same post – the pressure of almost a quarter of century of superstardom and a wish to focus on making music without the burden of high expectations of a role model.
‘‘Reports of him getting anyone pregnant are totally false and malicious and we urge well-meaning media platforms and members of the public to completely disregard such. It is fake news.
‘‘Many would recall that this fictitious banker character has been repeatedly getting e-pregnant for @official2baba every two or three years since 2014. There is no iota of truth in this allegation,’’ the statement concluded.
