"Free 2Baba"? Cynthia Morgan Calls for Prayers, Sparks Debate Over Monogamy & Masculinity
In a fiery Instagram story that has since gone viral, former dancehall star Cynthia Morgan is calling on Nigerians to pray for legendary singer 2Baba (Innocent Idibia) amid the backlash trailing his recent apology over an interview that many felt demeaned his wife, Annie Idibia.
According to Morgan, the real issue isn’t the apology — it’s what led to it. She alleged that Annie Idibia may have “forced” 2Baba to issue the apology and argued that the veteran artist can’t be boxed into monogamy after years of living as a polygamous man.
“At 49 with 7 kids from 3 women, are we surprised he thinks he is polygamous in nature? I’m not surprised,” Morgan wrote.
“Natasha [Annie], you can’t purge a man like 2face into monogamy overnight. Pray for 2face.”
She ended her message with a pointed biblical quote:
“Indiscipline truly brings shame. Proverbs 29 vs 15.”
💭 Opinion: Love, Loyalty & Reality — Can 2Baba Truly Be “Tamed”?
Cynthia Morgan’s comments have sparked mixed emotions. While some feel she's out of line for interfering in a couple’s personal life, others believe she’s simply echoing an uncomfortable truth — that expecting sudden change from a man with a decades-long history of polygamous tendencies may be unrealistic.
2Baba's history of romantic entanglements is no secret. He’s a father to seven children from three women, and though he’s married to Annie, his public statements often reflect a man still grappling with his past.
Some Nigerians believe 2Baba owes Annie more consistency and public loyalty. Others, like Cynthia Morgan, argue that he’s being forced to live a lie just to fit the ideal of monogamy.
👥 Public Reactions:
@misskemi: “Let 2Baba breathe abeg. Everyone knows his track record. Annie knew it too before marrying him.”
@ife_adekunle: “Cynthia Morgan just dropped a hard truth. Some men aren’t built for one woman. But should that justify public shame?”
@tomiwa4real: “Marriage should be about discipline too. You can’t keep disrespecting your wife publicly and hide under ‘I’m polygamous in nature.’”
