Nigerian music icon 2face Idibia, also known as Innocent Idibia, was reportedly arrested in London after a confrontation with his pregnant wife, Natasha Osawaru, a lawmaker in the Edo State House of Assembly. The arrest has sparked intense discussions online and across social media platforms.
The singer had traveled to the UK with Natasha for a concert tour but failed to appear at a scheduled performance on October 2, 2025. Rumors of his arrest surfaced following reports of a public altercation at the airport.
Kaka Igbokwe, 2face’s former manager and son of the late Christy Essien-Igbokwe, confirmed the incident during a live Instagram session with media personality Daddy Freeze. He stated, “Everything you heard about the couple’s face-off was true.”
According to Kaka, the incident occurred after 2face, excited by fans, walked away from Natasha upon landing. Feeling abandoned, Natasha confronted him, triggering a heated exchange that reportedly led to 2face being handcuffed by UK authorities.
Witnesses and social media posts, including a video shared by blogger Tosin Silverdam on TikTok on December 1, 2025, show the singer being restrained, intensifying public interest and debate over the event.
The altercation has raised questions about celebrity privacy, marital disputes, and the scrutiny public figures face during international tours. Fans and observers continue to share mixed reactions online, with many expressing concern over the couple’s wellbeing.
2face’s management has not released an official statement regarding the arrest, leaving fans and the media awaiting further clarification on the matter.
