“If You Go for Tyla’s Concert in Nigeria, You’re a B@stard” - OAP Dotun Sparks Outrage Amid Boycott Calls

Media personality and OAP Dotun has ignited a fresh wave of controversy after delivering a blunt message to Nigerians planning to attend South African singer Tyla’s upcoming Lagos concert.

The outspoken broadcaster took to X to react to Tyla’s scheduled “A POP Tour” stop in Lagos, urging Nigerians to boycott the event in light of renewed outrage over reported xenophobic attacks against Nigerians in South Africa.

In a strongly worded post, Dotun did not hold back.

“If you stand for anything or not, good for you, but if you go for that Tyla’s show then you are a b@stard,” he wrote.

His remarks have since gone viral, sparking heated debates across social media. The controversy comes as a growing number of Nigerians have called for a boycott of Tyla’s Lagos concert, arguing that supporting the event would be ureasonable while reports of xenophobic attacks against Nigerians in South Africa continue to generate concern.

Many supporters of the boycott insist the campaign is about standing in solidarity with Nigerians affected by the attacks rather than targeting Tyla personally. However, others have strongly disagreed, arguing that the Grammy-winning singer should not be blamed for the actions of criminals or broader political issues in her home country.

As conversations continue to dominate social media, the debate has expanded beyond music, reigniting discussions about xenophobia, national solidarity and whether entertainers should bear the consequences of conflicts they did not create.

With Tyla’s Lagos concert fast approaching, all eyes are now on whether the boycott campaign will have any impact on the highly anticipated show.
