Popular On-Air Personality Oladotun Ojuolape Kayode, known as Do2dtun, has criticized reality star Whitemoney for his comments about tribal identity during the 17th Headies Awards ceremony.

While accepting the Afrobeats Single of the Year award on behalf of singer Flavour at the ceremony held at the Eko Convention Centre in Lagos on Sunday, Whitemoney stated that he was on stage “on behalf of the Igbos.”

His acceptance speech received backlash from some viewers, who accused him of tribalism for limiting Flavour’s fanbase to the Igbo community.

Sharing in this sentiment, Do2dtun condemned Whitemoney for introducing tribal sentiment into the award show, emphasizing that the award won by Flavour belongs to all Afrobeats fans, regardless of their ethnicity.

On his X handle, he wrote, “’ On behalf of the Igbos.’ I’m sorry, that was so unnecessary. It didn’t need that type of narrative. It’s an award won by an African, for Afrobeats, and a Nigerian. #headies2025”
