My name is Innocent Ujah Idibia, but the world knows me as Tuface or 2Baba. I was born on the 18th of September, 1975, in Jos, Plateau State, though I am proudly from the Idoma tribe in Benue State, Nigeria.

Music has been my heart and soul since I was young, and through the years, I’ve been blessed to sing songs that touched lives, like “African Queen,” and win awards across Nigeria and beyond. I started with Plantashun Boiz, but my solo journey brought me to places I never imagined. Every step I took, whether in joy or pain, has shaped me into the man I am today.

I got married to Annie Macaulay in 2012, and together we had two beautiful daughters. I have seven children altogether, and they are all my heartbeat. Though my marriage to Annie ended, I will always respect the memories we shared.

I am now happily married to Hon. Natasha Osawaru, and I feel peace and joy in this new chapter of my life. Life has taught me that love, forgiveness, and growth are the most powerful things. I don’t take anything for granted — I am grateful for everything and everyone who has walked this journey with me.

— Tuface Idibia.
