Former Nigerian dancehall star Cynthia Morgan has stirred a storm on social media after coming to the defense of Afrobeats legend 2Baba, questioning the motive behind his recent public apology and seemingly taking aim at his wife, Natasha Osawaru.
In a bold Instagram story posted on Tuesday, Morgan appeared visibly upset over what she described as a forced act of contrition by the iconic musician, urging Nigerians to rally behind 2Baba with prayers and empathy. The post came shortly after 2Baba’s emotional apology video went viral, a moment that followed public backlash over a controversial comment he made about men and monogamy.
Cynthia Morgan didn’t hold back. She directly criticized Natasha Osawaru, implying that the apology may have been orchestrated behind closed doors.
“You can’t purge a man like Tuface into monogamy overnight,” she wrote, defending the singer’s candid view and life choices.
She went on to question the singer’s religious identity, writing:
“Is he a Christian or a church leader?”
Morgan didn’t stop there. Reflecting on 2Baba’s personal history and family life, she added:
“At 49, with 7 kids from 3 women, are we surprised he thinks he’s polygamous in nature? I’m not.”
The German Juice crooner wrapped up her message with a spiritual tone, pointing to a Bible verse as a subtle rebuke of those who have shamed the singer in recent days:
“Pray for Tuface. Someone says he deserves it. Indiscipline truly brings shame. Proverbs 29 vs 15. Free Tubaba.”
Her comments have triggered a flurry of reactions online, with fans, critics, and pop culture observers weighing in on the drama. While some supported Cynthia Morgan for speaking her mind and standing by 2Baba, others saw her remarks as an unnecessary intrusion into a deeply personal matter between husband and wife.
The situation adds another twist to what has become an ongoing saga surrounding 2Baba’s relationships and public image. The legendary artist has previously opened up about his struggles and regrets, but Morgan’s fiery commentary seems to have reignited the debate over celebrity relationships, societal expectations, and the burden of public accountability.
As the dust settles, one thing remains clear: 2Baba continues to be a lightning rod for discussion and Cynthia Morgan has once again shown she’s unafraid to speak her truth, even if it ruffles feathers.
