The music icon got married to his longtime girlfriend Annie Macaulay, in May, 2012, and this has helped him to stabilize his celebrity status in the eye of the media, after several cases of flimsy affairs with a fleet of ladies, which made him become a father to five children outside marriage. He has however taken responsibility of all the kids.
As had been earlier announced, the music star will be celebrating this major milestone in various ways, which includes a book launch, that will be released on Sunday, a red cross support day (which is today), and an All Star tribute concert in his honour, which will take place on Sunday, at the Eko Hotel Convention Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos.
His wife, Annie Idibia shared this sweet message to her super star hubby and father of her two daughters, along with a photo from their wedding in Dubai.
She wrote: Happy birthday to the best MAN I know… I love u today n always …@2faceidibia1 God bless u my darling.. Eternally Yours.
