‘Someone is forcing him to be who he’s not’ – Do2dtun reacts to 2Face’s apology video

Famous On-Air Personality, Oladotun Ojuolape Kayode, professionally known as Do2dtun, has reacted to singer 2Face’s public apology over his controversial claim that men aren’t built to be sexually committed to a woman.
OSUNDAILY NG reported that 2Face apologised to his wife, Natasha Osawuru, and his kids in a video broadcast following backlash.
Reacting, Do2dtun claimed that 2Face was forced to make the retraction, stressing that someone was exploiting the singer’s current vulnerability.
He explained that the ‘African Queen’ crooner had never addressed any scandal before. He insisted that all isn’t currently well with the singer.
In a series of posts on X, Do2dtun wrote, “Please I don’t like this 2Face I’m seeing. Something is not right at all. He can express himself how he chooses to, but why always make him retract a video or make an apology always like a child? He is vulnerable, and someone is milking it. Whoever is holding that camera is wicked.”
“Someone is forcing him to be who he is not. 2Face hardly addresses anything. Even in his worst of worst scandals, he never addresses anything like this. Something is wrong. He is regressing, and I hate it.”
The media personality stated that it is unfair to criticise 2Face over his controversial remark because he spoke his truth.
He noted that while the apology video “might be necessary to the cause it chooses to convey,” the person influencing 2Face to make the video is not doing it for the singer’s brand but for themselves.
Do2dtun claimed that 2Face needs “help” and recommended he go for therapy.

Police to destroy unexploded explosive device in Yobe

The Police Command in Yobe says it has concluded arrangements to demolish a high-velocity projectile in Damaturu on Wednesday.
The command’s spokesman, SP Dungus Abdulkarim, disclosed this in a statement in Damaturu.
He said the controlled demolition of the bomb would be handled by the Explosive Ordnance Disposal and Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (EOD-CBRN) Police Unit.
According to him, the exercise will be conducted at a distance away from the command’s headquarters on Gashua Road at 1 p.m.
Abdulkarim, therefore, called on the general public not to panic, as the exercise would be safe and posed no risk to the people.
The spokesman said that the explosive device, which was earlier discovered around Potiskum Road, might have been abandoned by metal scrap dealers.
“Recall that on June 22, 2025, an explosive device exploded at a scrap collection company in Kano, claiming 15 lives.
“We, therefore, urge scrap dealers, especially those operating in conflict areas, to avoid collecting or buying unidentified or unique metal objects.
“Report suspicious objects to the nearest police station or security formation for verification,” he said.
Abdulkarim said the state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Emmanuel Ado, had warned that anyone found collecting, purchasing, or selling explosive devices would be arrested for endangering lives and property.

Sa’ar urges reimposing United Nation’s sanctions on Iran after IAEA freeze-out

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar has called on European nations to reimpose United Nations sanctions on Iran, following Tehran’s decision to halt cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
Sa’ar condemned Iran’s move as “scandalous,” accusing the regime of completely abandoning its international nuclear commitments.
“This is a complete renunciation of all its international nuclear obligations and commitments,” he wrote in a statement posted on X.
The minister urged European signatories to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) to invoke the agreement’s snapback mechanism, which would restore all UN sanctions lifted under the deal.
“The international community must act decisively now and utilize all means at its disposal to stop Iranian nuclear ambitions,” Sa’ar added, echoing a similar appeal he made earlier in the week.
Earlier, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian had officially enacted a law suspending cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), as reported by Iran’s state media on Tuesday.
According to the report, “Masoud Pezeshkian promulgated the law suspending cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency,” signaling that the measure, passed by Iran’s parliament last month, has now taken effect.
The legislation was introduced in the wake of last month’s Iran-Israel war and marks a significant escalation in Tehran’s nuclear standoff with the West.
The move effectively halts Iran’s collaboration with the UN nuclear watchdog, raising fresh concerns about the transparency and monitoring of the country’s nuclear activities.
