Nigerian artists charge in dollars to perform in Nigeria – OAP Do2dtun cries out

Do2dtun, a popular on-air personality, has expressed his displeasure with Nigerian artists demanding payment in dollars for performances.

The OAP took to social media to express his displeasure, highlighting the growing trend of local talent preferring to be paid in dollars.

He claimed that, despite the fact that the musicians and genre are indigenous to the country, booking payments are now made in US dollars, even for performances in Nigeria.

Do2dtun referred to the recent development as a “bizarre and unusual development.”

Taking to his X handle, Do2dtun wrote:
