Natasha Osaworu, the fiancée of singer 2Baba, said Idibia is
her maiden name during a plenary session at the Edo state house of assembly
when she introduced herself.
“My name is Honourable Natasha Irobosa Osaworu, née Idibia,”
she said in a trending video before getting into her speech during the
state assembly plenary.
Introducing herself as Idibia sparked immediate laughter
among her colleagues as she took the floor.
The amusement stemmed from her well-known connection to
Nigerian music icon 2Baba Idibia, whose real name is Innocent Ujah Idibia.
Osawaru is a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
and a lawmaker currently representing the Egor constituency in the Edo house of
Assembly.
On Monday, she was removed as the minority leader of the
state house of assembly.
Her removal follows a shift in the party’s majority status
after four PDP lawmakers defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC),
giving the latter majority control.
The lawmaker was removed alongside Charity Aiguobarueghian,
the former majority leader, and Yekini Idaiye, who served as chief whip of the
house.
Natasha has been in the spotlight since 2Baba announced his
split from Annie Idibia in January and confirmed his relationship with the
lawmaker.
In February, the ‘African Queen’ singer proposed to her
while insisting their relationship had nothing to do with his separation from
Annie.
