Nigerian music legend 2Face Idibia has spoken out after comments he made during a podcast interview sparked heated reactions online. The singer came under fire for expressing a controversial opinion on male sexuality and monogamy.
In the now-viral clip from his chat with Nedu Wazobia, 2Face claimed that men aren’t biologically wired for sexual exclusivity. The remark triggered a wave of criticism across social platforms, with many accusing him of promoting harmful stereotypes and disrespecting women.
Amid the uproar, 2Face took to Instagram on Wednesday morning to acknowledge the backlash and take responsibility for his words. In a candid video, he offered a sincere apology and addressed both his supporters and critics.
“I know I have fucked up with what I have said. I really, really fucked up the way I said it. I’m going to pay with a heavy price. I’m going to face the consequences,” he admitted.

He further explained the major reason for his apology, saying,
“I said it because I want people to understand me, but maybe I didn’t say it appropriately. I own up to my mistake. But one thing I know for sure is I’m sorry to my wife Natasha. Calling me a legend is an honor, but this my talk is quite unlegendly.
“The amount of response that I get has made me see how much people love and respect me. For me to now use stupid statements to cancel everything, that’s not who I am. I’m sorry.”
His message has continued to generate conversation online, as fans and critics reflect on the fine line between honesty and irresponsibility—especially when it comes from public figures with significant influence.
