My from beneath to grace story: Anni Idibia celebrates 40th birthday with gratitude, reflection

414

Annie Idibia, the wife of legendary musician 2Baba, has expressed her excitement and gratitude as she marks her 40th birthday.

The Nollywood actress, who had been counting down to this significant milestone, took to her Instagram page to share a playful video from Dubai, radiating joy and enthusiasm about stepping into a new decade of her life.

A day earlier, Annie posted a video of herself scratching her arms while excitedly discussing her big day, sparking a variety of reactions online.

The clip, which captured her unfiltered emotions, left some fans speculating about her behaviour, though others interpreted it as sheer excitement.

On Sunday, Annie shared throwback photos, reflecting on her incredible journey and expressing gratitude for her life’s blessings.

She described her story as one of resilience, stating that she went from beneath the grass to Grace Unlimited.

The mother of two shared her hopes for this new chapter, declaring that it would centre around self-love, prioritizing her well-being, and embracing personal growth.

A week earlier, American singer Kelly Rowland’s story about her late mother struck a deep chord with Annie.

Annie, drawing parallels to her own mother’s struggles, revealed that her mother faced even more difficult times but experienced divine grace.

She expressed her commitment to giving her mother a life of ease and joy, promising to take her around the world as a gesture of love and appreciation.

This milestone caps off a year filled with notable achievements for the actress and entrepreneur.

In August, Annie celebrated her inclusion in the prestigious list of the 100 Most Influential Women in Africa.

Recognised for her talent, charisma, and impactful social work, Annie expressed her disbelief and pride, describing the honour as a testament to her resilience and divine favour.

Reflecting on the recognition, Annie noted her passion for empowering women and her contributions to the entertainment, fashion, and business worlds.

She proudly called herself “a child of Grace,” acknowledging the incredible strides she’s made throughout her journey.
