Popular Nigerian hype man and media personality Oladotun Ojuolape Kayode, better known as Do2dtun, has reacted to the viral drama between Nollywood stars Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham.
The incident happened at Iyabo Ojo’s movie premiere on Sunday evening, March 29, where Toyin Abraham greeted Funke Akindele but was snubbed despite showing respect by slightly kneeling to greet her.

Following the incident, which left Toyin embarrassed, she unfollowed Funke Akindele on Instagram, vowing never to greet her again.
Reacting to the saga, Do2dtun took to his X account to advise people to be mindful of whom they greet before leaving their homes.
He explained that everyone knows their enemies, colleagues, acquaintances and friends, and if they don’t, they should treat it like social media by following those who value them and blocking those who don’t.
“Before you leave your house, know the people you will greet and will never greet. You truly know your enemies; colleagues, acquaintances and friends. If you don’t, then treat it the way you treat your social media antics. Follow who you rate, like who you like and block who you don’t. Apply it in real life.”
OAP Dotun further noted that greetings are not compulsory, explaining that people often fail to acknowledge each other’s wins or even congratulate one another.
Furthermore, he said he would never fake affection and would rather protect his peace by ignoring those who don’t respect him.
“I won’t fake it if I don’t like you. I’ll stand on business. If you greet me; I greet you and if the beef is eternal; if you greet me, I won’t greet you. Maturity can also allow me protect my peace.”
Do2dtun added that not everyone deserves maturity or emotional intelligence, insisting that it is better to keep a distance than pretend.
He ended his posts with a Yoruba phrase, “Kosi ipade asiwin ati werey,” meaning there is no set meeting for the mad and the crazy.
