Legendary Nigerian Singer, Innocent Idibia aka 2Baba, has celebrated his 50th birthday with a heartfelt note.
He also used the moment to celebrate 25 years in the music industry.
Sharing his thoughts in a post on his Instagram page, he wrote:
“Today, I give thanks to Almighty God for the gift of life and the grace to celebrate my golden jubilee, 50 years on earth and also a historic milestone of 25 years in the music industry. This journey has been nothing short of amazing, and I do not take it for granted. Many who started this path with me are no longer here, and I honor their memories as I celebrate this moment.
I stand today as 2Baba because of the love, prayers, and support of so many. To my dear mother, my beautiful children, my wife, mother’s of my children, my siblings, and my entire family, you are my backbone…
This milestone is not mine alone; it belongs to all of us who have walked this journey together. My African queens and kings, you have carried me, inspired me, and kept me going through the highs and lows.
While I have so much more to say, I will reserve my deepest words and celebrations for the day we gather. This year’s celebration has been postponed, not canceled, because I want to do it differently, to merge my 50th birthday and my 25 years in the industry into one unforgettable experience.
Until then, keep the fire burning. The best is yet to come.
One love always,
2Baba.”
