A man has shared a video purportedly depicting the place and residence where Nigerian artist Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Face Idibia , is believed to be living in Benin City.
Earlier, 2Faces’s mother expressed worry after the singer was reported as missing. However, he subsequently clarified in a video the reasons for being declared missing and his current whereabouts.
In a viral video, the man, who claims to be residing in Amagba, a district in Benin City, implied that 2Baba now calls that area home. He mentioned that the singer had vacated his opulent mansion in Banana Island to rent a residence in a more isolated, wooded region.
The man mocked 2Baba, alleging that he was living in a place lacking electricity. Furthermore, in the video, the individual, who appears to work as a painter, stated that he could pinpoint the house and physically escort the singer from his domicile.
He voiced his displeasure, remarking that it was shameful to see the celebrity spending his later years in such a remote and dim location. The painter also noted that anyone on the lookout for 2Baba should feel free to reach out to him, as he was more than willing to direct them to the singer’s doorstep.
It’s important to mention that after 2Baba was initially reported missing, he was later seen in public alongside his partner, Natasha Osawaru. The couple had paid a visit to the Esama of Benin and were spotted together after 2Baba’s performance at an event.
