Natasha Osawaru is making moves, and doing so firmly under her own name.
The Edo State politician unveiled an official merchandise collection on Instagram on Tuesday, September 22, 2026, branding it under the name
"Honourable Natasha Irobosa Osawaru" with the tagline "The Power of Purpose."

The line includes tumblers, mugs, caps, tote bags, notebooks, pens, keychains, phone cases and clothing, all packaged under the motto: "More than merch. A movement for people, progress and possibilities."
Natasha drops 2Baba's name again
The launch arrived at a particularly loaded moment. Earlier in September, Natasha had already raised eyebrows when she introduced herself at an Edo State House of Assembly session using only her maiden name, conspicuously leaving out the Idibia surname she carries as the wife of music legend 2Baba, born Innocent Idibia.
Then, days before the merchandise reveal, she was notably absent from her husband's lavish 51st birthday celebration, a gathering that drew significant public attention.
The back-to-back developments have fuelled widespread speculation about the state of their marriage, with the merchandise launch adding fresh fuel to an already burning conversation online.

2Baba's baby mama Pero Adeniyi celebrates him
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Pero Adeniyi, one of the baby mamas of Afrobeats icon 2Baba, made a quiet but notable move on social media as the singer celebrated a major milestone.
In response, Pero was among the many social media users who liked the post, a small but telling gesture that caught attention.
The interaction comes weeks after 2Baba himself extended a warm, public greeting to Pero.
