Like or hate them, Baby Mamas have come to stay. They are gradually
becoming a fad in the entertainment circuit, especially in the music
sector. A Baby Mama is a term loosely used to describe a woman who
bears a child for a man outside wedlock.
Opening the year’s account of Baby Mamas is the duo of Peter Okoye of
the P Square fame and their estranged protégé, Akinmayokun Awodumila
popularly known as May D. They were recently in the news for welcoming
new born babies into their homes and lives.
Having monitored the trend for so long, EE has decided to take you into
the world of the little known Baby Mamas of some of your favourite
music stars and why most of them may not walk down the aisle with their
famous partners.

Despite giving birth first in 2011 for Peter Okoye’s first son,
Cameron, the Ondo State-born beauty is yet to walk down the aisle with
her famous lover. However, there are those who believe that the two
lovebirds have a secret pact to remain live-in lovers.
Recently, Omotayo who is older than Peter gave birth to their second
child, a baby girl they have already christened Aliona, in the USA, the
same country where Cameron was born. Peter Okoye, the other half of the
P Square duo has over the years shied away from the question of
marriage, for reasons which are unknown but there are indications that
there is plan for him to get married the same day with his brother, Paul
who is not yet ready despite rumour of his own girlfriend being heavily
pregnant.
Pero Adeniyi/Tuface Idibia
Many were and are still shocked that she didn’t end up as Mrs. Idibia,
by virtue of the fact that she has the highest number of kids, three,

then, the music star in what came as a sudden shock to the public
proposed to his youngest baby mama, Annie Macaulay, thus leaving Pero
and her kids shattered and devastated.

behind her as it was recently reported that she was set to marry one
Pastor Adeoye, the general overseer of Royalty Christian Centre, where
she is a revered chorister in the church’s choir.

to a baby boy. Adebola Olowoporoku who is also a model flaunts the
tattoo of her lover’s name on her back.
Babatunde Bimbo/ Ice Prince
20-year old Babatunde Bimbo hit the news last year after she confessed
to carrying the child of Nigerian rap star, Ice Prince Zamani. Despite
the several denials and rejections that trailed her announcement, the
former undergraduate had to drop out of school to keep the pregnancy.
The baby was christened Toluwalase. Ice Prince, who initially distanced
himself from mum and child, later admitted in an interview to being the
father. In a sudden twist of event, Ice Prince embraced his child and
re-named him Jamal Zamani. The hardworking rapper is gradually
introducing the baby to his fans. He recently celebrated his son’s
birthday and posted online another photo of a birthday card and cake he
received with the caption ‘For you dad, on your birthday.’

Pop singer Timaya welcomed his first child- a baby girl in May last
year but the identity of his baby mama however remained a secret. It was
however revealed that the lady who stole Timaya’s heart is a
singer-cum-budding actress who is simply known as Barbra. The
dark-skinned lady who is in her 20s met Timaya in 2010. Timaya whose
real name is Enetimi Odom named his daughter Emmanuella Perere Timaya.
It was gathered that Timaya put Barbra and Emmanuella in an apartment in
the heart of Ikeja and bought her a GL 450 Benz, valued at about N13m,

been cleared by the self-styled ‘Egberipapa 1’ of Bayelsa State.

The Benue State-born singer and his UK-based fiancée have a son
together which was delivered in the UK sometimes last year. After

filtered that the Gingah master secretly carried out a traditional
wedding with Mimi. A story that neither Terry G nor his management
confirmed or denied.

Payne, it was learnt that 9ice secretly started an affair with an
unknown Abuja-based woman. However, much has not been heard about
Victoria Olubulola Goddies who reportedly gave birth to twins for the
Gongo Aso crooner.
The mystery woman who many have pointed accusing fingers at as the
cause of the separation between the Oyo State-born crooner and his
former wife Toni Payne, is yet to be seen in public with the singer.
Toni Payne is known for throwing jibes once in a while at her husband’s
other baby mama by making some controversial comments via the social
networking site, Twitter. “Some people are so stupid. You have an affair
with a married man, he throws his wife and son out in the dead of the
night and you think Karma won’t get you, lmao” she once tweeted.
Annie Macualy/Tuface Idibia
She seems to have won the heart of the singer after he publicly
proposed to her on Valentine Day in 2012. After losing her first
pregnancy for the African Queen crooner under controversial
circumstances, the music star made his intention of making her his baby
mama known by making sure she became pregnant again, after which she was
flown to faraway United States of America for her delivery. The fruit
of their union is pretty Isabella, a spit image of her mother.
