On Tuesday, Nigerian legendary artist Innocent ‘2Baba’ Idibia and his baby mother, Pero Adeniyi, celebrated the 16th birthday of their daughter, Ehikwoichó.
On his Instagram page, 2Baba shared his delight at how quickly his “little princess” had grown into a “African Queen.”
He wrote, “Feels like I just blinked and boom my little princess has grown into a very bright and beautiful young African Queen. Massive birthday blessings to you.
“Ehikòwoichó (Gift from God/ God’s gift), I pray for continuous love, light guidance and wisdom for you, my beloved daughter.”
The celebrant’s mother also posted a lengthy epistle on her Instagram page in which she praised and prayed for her daughter.
Pero wrote, “Ehikowoicho Morolayo Oluwashemilogo, sixteen years ago you arrived on this planet, and our lives have never been the same. Here are my thoughts for you, today, as you celebrate your Sweet 16.
“I am so proud of you. I love the woman you are on your way to becoming. I love your strength, your fortitude, your strong sense of right from wrong, and your belief in fairness and order. I love your fantastic humour as well as your sense of self.
“I love that you challenge yourself, push yourself, work hard and are accomplishing so much through those qualities. I love your confidence and that independent nature of yours. I love your silliness and sense of fun. I love most of all that I get to be your mom and watch you grow and blossom into this person you are.”
The musician has two children with his wife, Annie, and another baby mama, Sumbo Adeoye, while 2Baba and Pero have three children together.
Annie recently expressed her dissatisfaction with the fact that, although knowing 2Baba first, her first child was the singer’s sixth.
When Annie accused 2Baba of having an affair with Pero when he was in the United States last year, their marriage was shaken.
