Men sabotage one another’ — Do2dtun explains why women treat men badly

Nigerian media personality Do2dtun has sparked a wave of reactions online after sharing a controversial take on gender dynamics, arguing that men’s treatment of one another may be responsible for how women treat them.

The on-air personality, whose real name is Oladotun Ojuolape Kayode, made the remarks late Monday via his X (formerly Twitter) account, where he suggested that a lack of empathy among men creates a perception that ultimately shapes how women respond to them.

The reason why some women don’t treat men well is because they see the way we treat each other. Carelessly, with no remorse, we bash each other and term everything as weakness. Even the one without balls will join,” he wrote.

Do2dtun further criticised what he described as a culture of mockery among men, especially when one of them shows vulnerability.

“A man comes out to express himself; yet na men dey bash am pass. If na woman, una pr*ck go don hard. This man was supported by mostly women. Guess what, they will do the same for each other. E reach our turn; we turn to overnight Hercules,” he added.

His comments came on the heels of the Nigerian media personality Roby Ekpo, who opened up about the breakdown of his marriage to Mayowa Lambe, accusing her of infidelity, deception and financial strain in a deeply emotional account.

Ekpo said in an unreleased episode of The Honest Bunch podcast that he was shocked to discover that his wife had remarried after more than a decade together.
“After 11 years of marriage, I woke up to videos and pictures of my wife on Instagram getting married to another man,” he said.

Since then, Do2dtun’s remarks have generated conflicting responses on social media. While some users concur that males frequently undermine one another emotionally, others reject the assertion as being unduly simplistic.

However, the media personality insisted that men should genuinely care about and support one another, implying that a change in perspective could have an impact on more general relationship dynamics.
