Edo State politician Natasha Osawaru has reflected on the challenges she encountered over the past year as she marked her birthday, expressing gratitude to God for seeing her through difficult moments.

Osawaru celebrated the occasion by sharing new photographs of herself on Instagram, accompanied by an emotional message describing the year as challenging but ultimately a blessing.

In her birthday post, she wrote:

“HAPPY TO ME! ANOTHER YEAR ADDED IN GOD’S GRACE. ITS BEEN A ROUGH YEAR BUT GOD TURNED IT ALL AROUND TO BE A BLESSING. I THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOR BRINGING ME THIS FAR.”

Her message highlighted her appreciation for overcoming the difficulties she experienced, while acknowledging what she described as God's blessings throughout the period.

The birthday celebration came hours after her estranged partner, Nigerian music star Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, publicly celebrated his former wife, Annie Idibia, on her birthday.

2Baba and Annie announced the end of their 13-year marriage in January 2025, with the singer's subsequent relationship with Osawaru attracting considerable public attention.

Osawaru's birthday message has added another development to the public interest surrounding the personal lives of the politician and the Nigerian music star.
