Nigerian broadcaster Do2dtun demands fans boycott Tyla in Lagos amid ongoing xenophobic tension
On July 29, 2026, Nigerian media personality Do2dtun urged citizens to boycott South African singer Tyla during her December 22 concert in Lagos. He cited renewed xenophobic attacks against Nigerians in South Africa as his primary reason for this strict stance.
The ongoing tension between Nigeria and South Africa has sparked a fresh dispute. Nigerian media personality Do2dtun heavily criticized fans planning to attend an upcoming show. He targeted South African music star Tyla ahead of her Lagos tour date.
The Grammy winner recently announced her global tour schedule. This tour includes a highly anticipated stop in Lagos on December 22.
Strong words for fans
Do2dtun took his frustrations to social media on July 29, 2026. He shared a blunt message on the X platform. The radio host did not hold back his extreme anger.
”If you stand for anything or not, good for you but if you go for that Tyla’s show then you are a b—d.”
Do2dtun declared in his post. A screenshot of this post is visible in the file 1001685863.jpg. The broadcaster feels deeply angered by recent events in South Africa.
Xenophobia tension continues
Reports indicate a renewed wave of attacks against Nigerian nationals there. South Africa and Nigeria share a long history of cultural exchange.
However, repeated xenophobic violence has severely strained this relationship. Tyla recently gained global fame with her massive hit singles. Many Nigerian fans initially celebrated her massive global success.
Now, some citizens agree with Do2dtun and support a strict boycott. The singer has not yet responded to the growing backlash.
