Black face, Afro-pop singer has issued an apology to his colleague, Innocent '2baba' Idibia.

Recall that Blackface has always accused his former musical group member, Tuface Idibia, of stealing his song ‘African Queen’ and copying his pattern.

Tuface then slammed the former with an N50m lawsuit bordering on defamation of character and the duo appeared at the Ikeja high court today.

However, the apology comes on the heels of the out-of-court settlement for their ongoing copyright infringement battle in Lagos on Wednesday.

It read, "Having consulted with my Solicitors, I do hereby revoke all allegations of intellectual property theft and career sabotage previously made against Mr. Innocent Idibia and Mr. Efe Omorogbe

"These statements were erroneously made under misapprehension as to their accuracy, due to prevailing circumstances at the time. I have been advised on the inaccuracy of my previous allegations and retract them entirely.

"I undertake to refrain from making any such subsequent statements against the persons of Mr. Innocent Idibia and Mr. Efe Omorogbe in future".

The former best friends came to an agreement at a mediation process held in the presence of 2baba's manager, Efe Omorogbe, and Black Face's lawyer, Manny Enajeroh, in Lagos on Wednesday.

A mediator, Ronke Kuku, oversaw the process at the Ikeja High Court Alternative Dispute Resolution Centre (ADR) section.

Black Face's solicitor, Manny Enajeroh, has also confirmed the development.

Mr Enajeroh also hinted of a possibility of both artistes recording a track when this newspaper probed further.

"That would ultimately depend on the parties, but I see no reason why that can't happen. Their differences were purely professional resulting from certain inefficiencies in the copyright system. There is no longer an issue of stealing songs so I believe the future of both artistes is bright," he said.

2baba's manager also confirmed the news adding that his team would issue a statement to the effect on Thursday.
