However, the social media drama between Do2dtun and Jade Osiberu began when the filmmaker criticised Roby Ekpo’s friends for letting him share his pain on the platform just to look like a victim.
“This Roby guy… his friends are not good people oo. Why did anyone allow this guy to go on this show? I know he intended to come off as a victim, but bruh, ko work ooo”
Responding to Jade Osiberu's post, Do2dtun defended his decision to stand by his friend, explaining that he preferred Roby Ekpo finding public closure over taking a sinister path.
“Again, I would rather he find closure than choose a more sinister path. He is here, and I’m glad he is.”
The movie director, known for her Gang of Lagos film, fired back by maintaining that the internet is not therapy, accusing the media personality of projecting his unhealed traumas onto her.
“Dotun, my dear, you sef need to heal oh. You’re projecting your own biases onto what I haven’t said, and it shows that your issue isn’t with me, my dear.”
Do2dtun dismissed her statements as deeply patronising, calling her out for hypocritically judging his life while imposing her views on others.
“Please stop the dear bullsh!t. It’s patronising. You lost my respect. You want to play dirty, let’s play”
"Who are you to tell people about healing? Your films don’t teach anything so much that they qualify as what anyone can learn anything from. You dish out a diagnosis that you can’t defend"

@sauceprince1 commented:
"You can't blame him for speaking out. Trust me, he will feel better now! He should just do some self care rituals, like I did. He will get over everything with time, it might take years, but he will be fine."

"We heard of the man that did dna then and had stroke after discovering those kids are not his, if coming out to talk will help him heal pls let him come out, men are humans its ok for them to be emotional too."
@wendyville19 reacted:
"Her telling him to heal was intrusive."
@thenadineuncut said:
"I'm with Dotun on this. You can't tell a grown man how to grieve or heal. Maybe the podcast will give him the closure he's looking for. Men suffer too."
