Legendary Nigerian musician 2Baba has issued a public apology for his controversial statement.
Daily Sun reports that 2Baba claimed in an interview with Nedu Wazobia that men are not created to be sexually dedicated to women.
His comment generated outrage on social media, with many users denouncing him.
Responding to the outrage, the 49-year-old musician apologised in a video posted on his Instagram page on Wednesday morning.
“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.
“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.”
