Nigerian music legend Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has spoken candidly about his journey as a father, revealing both gratitude and moments of emotional reflection.
The award-winning singer shared that he is blessed with eight children, a reality he says fills his heart with pride and happiness. However, alongside the joy, 2Baba admitted that he sometimes feels a deep sense of sadness about not being able to spend as much time with all of them together as he would have loved.
According to him, the demands of fame, work, and life’s complicated paths have made it difficult to always be present in the way he wishes. Even though he remains committed to supporting and loving his children, he acknowledged that the feeling of missing out on certain moments still weighs on him.
For many fans, the honesty struck a chord. The singer, admired for decades for his music and influence, showed a softer and more vulnerable side, one that many parents can relate to. Balancing career and family is never easy, and his words highlighted the emotional cost that often comes with success.
Despite the regrets, 2Baba emphasized how thankful he is for each of his children and the role they play in his life. To him, they remain a source of motivation, strength, and purpose.
His reflection has sparked conversations online about fatherhood, responsibility, and the importance of presence, with many praising him for speaking openly about a topic men in the spotlight rarely discuss.
