He said that Faze's presence on stage was to represent the legacy of the Plantashun Boiz group.
"You all know that Plantashun Boiz consisted of Blackface, 2Face and Faze. But due to some unforeseen circumstances, Blackface is not with us right now," he said.
The singer, known for his hit song African Queen, made it clear that the rift between him and Blackface does not involve Faze in any way.
"However, no matter the beef wey me and Blackface get, nothing concerns Faze inside. So, Faze is right here with me, and we will represent Plantashun Boiz," he told the crowd.

The feud between 2Face and Blackface
The feud between 2Baba and Blackface has lingered for years, with roots tracing back to the disbandment of Plantashun Boiz in the 2000s.
Following their split, Blackface blamed 2Baba for the breakup and accused him of intellectual property theft, allegations 2Baba has consistently denied.
Over the years, several attempts have been made to reconcile the duo, but their relationship has remained strained, with peace efforts often proving futile.
Despite the unresolved rift, 2Baba’s comments in Makurdi suggested a deliberate effort to separate the group’s shared musical legacy from personal disputes.

The real fight was 2Face vs Blackface – Adebimpe
Music and entertainment analyst, Smith Adebimpe, explained that the feud in Plantashun Boiz was mainly between 2Face and Blackface, not Faze.
He stated:
The fight in Plantashun Boiz was always between 2Face and Blackface, while Faze stayed neutral. Blackface accused 2Face of stealing African Queen, but if 2Face had no talent, he would have faded long ago. But among the trio, only 2Baba stayed relevant till date. Also, Blackface keeps accusing other artistes too; Wizkid, Burna Boy, Asake, Olamide, P-Square, the list is endless. Does it mean that only Blackface is talented in the music industry while every other artiste has to steal from him to make music? At some point, you need to check yourself, not everyone else.

He emphasised making this confession everywhere he goes to set the record straight on long-standing misconceptions about his personal life and romantic reputation.
2Baba emphasised his innocence, noting that those who know him personally can testify.
He clarified that the statement is not for entertainment or online attention but a genuine correction, adding that he and his wife, Natasha, have provided over 2 years of content to the public, so he will no longer engage in internet drama.
