Nino, one of singer Innocent Idibia's sons with Sunmbo Adeoye, has shared a touching Mother's Day post to celebrate both his mother and stepmum, Annie Macaulay.

The 19-year-old posted on his Instagram story on Sunday, May 11, 2025, in honour of this year's Mother's Day.

He shared a few throwback photos from his childhood — one with his biological mother, Sunmbo, taken when he was a baby, and another featuring his stepmother, Annie, her first daughter Isabel, and his other brother.

In the photo, Annie Macaulay was joyfully smiling at the two boys, a moment that warmed the hearts of fans.

2Baba's son Nino speaks about home

In his post, Nino, who was recently inducted as social prefect in secondary school, wrote that “home is where mum is.”

It’s worth noting that Pastor David Adeoye, Sunmbo's new husband, also shares a close bond with his stepsons.

He celebrated Nino a few months ago on his birthday, showing continued love and support.

The world is selfish , always remember that the safest place to be is with you . You’re safe with you."

"Annie earned the love and respect" - Fabmumng founder

Fabmumng's founder, Jayne Augoye, has reacted to the public display of love shown to Annie Macaulay by 2baba's son with Sunmbo Adeoye, Nino, despite the actress being his stepmom on Mother's Day. This came after Annie had been divorced from his father. She said:

"When Sunmbo’s son publicly celebrated Annie Idibia on Mother’s Day and even called her 'mum' even though Annie’s marriage to 2baba had ended, it spoke volumes. That kind of love and respect doesn’t come from nowhere. It’s earned. Especially in a Nigerian home, where 'mum' is not a title anyone throws around carelessly, especially not for someone who didn’t give birth to you. And you also know the dynamics of blended families or being a step-parent, especially a step-mum."

Augoye commented on the bittersweetness Annie would have felt on realising her hubby was having kids with another woman, her coming to terms with it and accepting the sons as hers.

"Annie’s and Sunmbo’s children are almost age mates, which means 2baba was two—timing at some point. Imagine being in love with a man and suddenly realising another woman is pregnant around the same time as you. That must have been a tough, bitter pill to swallow. But maybe Annie knows the whole story. Maybe she understands how Sunmbo came into 2Baba’s life. Perhaps that knowledge gave her enough perspective to avoid resentment and embrace the children without letting pain win."
