Nigerian singer Innocent Idibia, widely known as Tuface, and his wife Natasha Osawaru, have dedicated their newborn child in a church ceremony.

Moments from the intimate service surfaced on social media on Thursday, showing the couple dancing into the church with their baby for the thanksgiving.

The dedication comes months after the couple’s wedding in July 2025 and the arrival of the baby in November 2025.

Tuface , a multiple award-winning artiste, has several children from multiple women and has often spoken about fatherhood, describing it as a “big task,” and a “blessing.

In a recent interview with Mic On podcast, he  openly acknowledged he hasn’t fully lived up to his role saying “I have not been the best daddy. I want to do more.”

He stressed the importance of being a present father figure and said he hopes to improve.  

The singer’s comments come amid his highly publicised split from his wife, Annie Idibia, with whom he shares two children.

Ms Osawaru, a politician, has also continued to attract public interest following their union.
