Singer and rapper Skales, whose real name is Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, and his new girlfriend have come under criticism on social media following their encounter with music legend Innocent Idibia, aka 2Baba.

A video that recently surfaced on social media captured the moment Skales met 2Baba in the UK.

The short clip showed the moment Skales and his girlfriend were seated when 2Baba walked in.

After Skales introduced her as “my woman," 2Baba stretched his hand to greet her, which she reciprocated while remaining seated, an action many Nigerians have termed ‘disrespectful.’
