2Baba, the ace Nigerian singer, has deleted the post confirming his split from Annie Idibia, his wife.
On Sunday, the ‘African Queen’ hitmaker announced that he and Annie had been separated for a while and were filing for divorce.
“Well this thing I have to say is short but long. I and Annie Macaulay have been separated for a while now and currently filed divorce. I would grant a press release soon to say my story,” the post reads.
Barely minutes after the post, the 49-year-old disclosed that his Instagram account was hacked and efforts were being made to regain control of the page.
But in a new video, 2Baba refuted earlier claims that his Instagram account was hacked. He also confirmed his split from Annie.
However, in a surprising move, the singer deleted the post, leaving only 12 posts on his Instagram page.
The singer’s actions have triggered a wave of criticism online, with some celebrities accusing him of humiliating Annie.
Actress Mary Njoku cautioned 2Baba to ensure Annie’s well-being, stating that despite their silence out of respect, questions will arise if she’s not properly cared for.
“Bro, Annie has a family o! Your sisters-in-law are many, and we’ve stayed quiet out of respect for her tough choices. But since you’ve decided to humiliate her at her lowest, no wahala,” she wrote on Instagram.
“Just make sure she’s healthy and okay because when the time comes, we’ll have plenty of questions for you.”

Similarly, Toke Makinwa questioned 2Baba’s decision to announce the divorce publicly, emphasising that the truth will be revealed soon.
“Nobody is asking anybody to stay in a situation that’s not serving them any purpose anymore, by all means leave if you must but why bring this online this very moment?” she wrote via an Instastory.
“We know what is going on behind closed doors, The world doesn’t know anything, it’s already been hectic with opinions flying around and when I say we will fight for her I’m not talking about the general public.
“A hand full of people know the truth and time will tell. Timing is everything, empathy is everything, You constantly preach love, you cannot add to the narrative that’s out there when you know what is really happening behind closed doors.”
Annie has yet to comment on the matter.
2Baba and Annie tied the knot in May 2012. They have two children — Olivia and Isabella.
