Popular Nigerian On-Air Personality, Oladotun Ojuolape Kayode, widely known as Do2dtun, has shared his concerns over singer 2Face Idibia’s recent public apology.
According to Do2dtun, the apology seems unnatural and forced, suggesting that someone might be manipulating the music icon during a vulnerable period.
2Face, in a now-viral video, had tendered an emotional apology to his wife, Annie Idibia, and their children. The apology followed his controversial statement during an interview where he said, “Men are not built to be with only one woman.” His comment drew widespread backlash online, prompting the singer to publicly retract his words.
“Something is not right,” Do2dtun says
Reacting to the video, Do2dtun expressed deep concern for 2Face’s well-being. In a series of posts shared via his official X (formerly Twitter) account, the energetic media personality said the apology didn’t reflect 2Face’s usual character.
“Please, I don’t like this 2Face I’m seeing. Something is not right at all,” he wrote. “He can express himself however he wants, but why is he always made to retract statements or apologise like a child? He is vulnerable, and someone is taking advantage of it. Whoever is holding that camera is wicked.”
“He’s being controlled,” Do2dtun alleges
Do2dtun didn’t hold back in his comments. He accused an unnamed individual of forcing the singer to act out of character. According to him, 2Face has never been one to publicly address controversies or respond to scandals in such a way.
“Someone is forcing him to be who he’s not. 2Face hardly reacts to anything, even in his worst scandals. Now suddenly he’s making apology videos? It’s unlike him. Something is seriously wrong. He’s not himself, and I hate seeing him like this.”
The OAP emphasised that 2Face might be regressing emotionally or mentally and that the public display of repentance appeared more like pressure than sincerity.
“He spoke his truth,” says Do2dtun
While many have condemned 2Face’s original statement, Do2dtun argued that the singer was simply expressing his truth. According to him, there was no need to drag the artist or force him into public apologies when he was only being honest.
“People are attacking him for saying what many people feel but are afraid to say. The apology might serve a purpose, but it doesn’t seem like it’s for his benefit. It feels more like damage control for someone else’s brand, not his.”
Do2dtun insisted that the singer’s voice should be respected, even if his views are unpopular. He said forcing someone to apologise repeatedly could do more harm than good.
Do2dtun recommends therapy for 2Face
In a compassionate tone, Do2dtun concluded his remarks by urging 2Face to seek professional help. He suggested therapy might be necessary, especially if the singer is truly struggling.
“He needs help. Real help. Therapy might be a good start,” Do2dtun wrote.
The radio host’s reaction has sparked discussions on social media, with fans split over whether 2Face’s apology was genuine or staged under pressure. Some praised Do2dtun for speaking up, while others felt the singer’s apology was necessary, given the nature of his statement.
2Face’s controversial comment
The controversy began when 2Face appeared on a podcast hosted by comedian and media personality Nedu Wazobia. During the conversation, 2Face remarked that men are not naturally wired to be monogamous. The clip quickly spread online, with critics accusing him of promoting infidelity and disrespecting his wife.
Following the uproar, 2Face posted a video where he took back his words and apologised to Annie, his children, and fans who felt disappointed.
While the apology calmed some of the backlash, it also raised new questions, especially after Do2dtun’s public reaction.
The bigger conversation
Do2dtun’s comments have opened up a larger discussion about mental health, celebrity image control, and the pressure to please the public. Many are now asking: Was 2Face genuinely sorry, or was he forced into making the video to protect a carefully crafted public image?
For now, the legendary singer has remained silent since the apology, leaving fans and observers to speculate on what’s really going on behind the scenes.
