The family of Nigerian music icon, Innocent Idibia, commonly known as 2Face, has voiced worries over his unexpected absence, forcing them to seek the involvement of the Department of State Services (DSS).
According to a petition submitted by the family’s legal agents, Anuge, Anuge & Co., they are concerned that 2Face is missing because they have been unable to contact him for days.
It should be recalled that 2Face filed for divorce from his wife, Annie Idibia, and proposed to Edo State legislator Natasha Osawaru while the process was still ongoing.
On Thursday night, the singer’s mother, Rose Idibia, made a public appeal in a viral video, pleading with Nigerians to urge Natasha to “release” her son.
In a letter dated February 7, the Idibia family revealed that frantic efforts to contact 2face have failed, prompting them to file a petition with the DSS.
The petition found that 2Face left his home early on February 10 for what appeared to be a typical morning stroll, but never returned.
It reads, “We are solicitors to the Idibia family, acting on their firm instructions to seek your urgent intervention regarding the disappearance of Mr. Innocent Idibia, also known as 2Baba. Our clients believe he may have been missing since February 10, 2025.”
Attempts by his family, staff, and record label to reach him have been unsuccessful, deepening concerns about his safety.
According to the petition, unusual activity on his social media accounts has raised alarms among the family members.
“The implications of this situation are grave, and the possibility of foul play cannot be ignored. Given his status as a responsible family man and a dedicated artist, his prolonged silence is deeply concerning,” the letter stated.
