Adeniyi on the lips. It shocking to see that 2face married the love of
his life Annie Idibia in March 2013. The picture of 2
Baba lip locking with his baby mama gave the singer a bad image in
public who believed he had ended his playboy ways. To make matters

who she was associated with at that time was not the father of the
twins. The identity of the father of Nadia Buari's twins is still not
yet known.
