Ace Nigerian OAP and music journalist, Dotun Oladotun Ojuolape Kayode aka Do2dtun, has sparked a massive conversation on social media after he took to his X (formerly Twitter) handle to call out his former employers, SoundCity.

In a series of tweets, Do2dtun slammed the management of SoundCity over the unpaid salaries of its workers for more than eight months. The media personality asked if it was by force to own a radio station and asked why anyone would treat their staff in such a manner.

Here’s an excerpt from one of Do2dtun’s tweets below:

“It’s not by force to open a radio station. Owing your staff for 8 months is very cruel and inhumane. You don’t need a soothsayer to tell you this.”

Do2dtun’s tweets resonated with several social media users, who shared their anger at how cruelly some bosses treat their staff. It will be recalled that Do2tun has been in a battle with his estranged ex-wife after not being able to access his kids for some time now.

Singer Skales shared a tweet in support of the OAP. He stated that anyone who was against Do2tun was an enemy. In another tweet, Do2dtun asked how people still working at the company were surviving.

My friends and colleagues at Soundcity, how do you guys cope?

@jskay7:
“8months? Shouldn’t this be a criminal offence? Except the staff have been financially prudent to save for rainy days (assumption), how will they survive without salary for 3months except they are getting funds elsewhere or leaving off debts?”

@Ashabul_Jannaah:
“Eight months without a salary? That’s absolutely insane. I honestly don’t know how they’re managing, but they definitely deserve better. Stay strong.”
