- Charly Boy has reacted to the trending topic of 2Baba and Annie Idibia’s divorce saga.
- The singer on a TV show stated that if he ever found himself in 2Baba and Annie’s situation, he would not bring it to social media.
- He laid emphasis on the importance of settling misunderstandings amicably without a third party involved.
Maverick singer, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has urged Nigerian celebrities to stop bringing their private lives to public attention.
He gave the advice while reacting to Nigerian power couple, 2baba and Annie Idibia’s marital crisis in a recent interview with TVC.
The septuagenarian boasted that the public wouldn’t be aware if he decided to divorce his wife. In his words:
“I feel sorry for the couple [2Face and Annie Idibia]. It’s unfortunate. But my advice would be, can we just keep our business private, away from the public?
“Social media has changed a lot but it’s up to the people, too. I’m not talking from a saintly perspective. I have had quarrels with my partner but we settle in the room privately.
“You don’t bring it outside to the public to settle. I think that’s wrong because if I were to stop living with my wife today, nobody would know about. I won’t make noise about it.”
Recall 2Baba announced the end of his 13-year-old marriage to Annie on Instagram. The post read:
“Hello to my beautiful people of all federations. Well, this thing I have to say is short but also long…I and Annie Macaulay have been separated for a while now, and currently filed for divorce.
“I would grant a press release soon to say my story. Not because it is anyone’s right to know about my personal life but because I love my people and I need them to know my innocence or offense. Stay blessed my people. I love you all.”
Shortly after, it was deleted and another post appeared on the same account, claiming that the page had been compromised. It read:
“My Instagram account has been hacked, efforts are being carried out to take back control. #onelove!”
However, in a surprising turn of events, 2Baba later released a video clarifying the situation.
In the veteran singer’s latest reveal, shared on his Instagram story on Sunday night January 26, he confirmed that the controversial post on his social media page regarding his separation from his wife, Annie Idibia, was indeed made by him.
He disclosed that his account had not been hacked, contrary to the previous statement, and implied that the initial post about his separation was authentic.
