Nigerian on-air personality Dotun, popularly known as Do2dtun, has announced his departure from radio after an impressive 20-year career.
Taking to his Instagram page, Dotun reflected on his remarkable journey as a media personality, which began as an intern at Cool FM Lagos in 2004 and evolved into becoming a household name in the industry.
He expressed heartfelt gratitude to a few legendary figures who played pivotal roles in mentoring and supporting him during his radio career. Dotun specifically acknowledged Dan Foster, Olisa Adibua, and Daddy Freeze for their guidance in his early days on the airwaves.
He wrote on his page:
“This must be one of the hardest decisions I have made. I am fulfilled in my heart that I built a legacy. Oh, my sweet home @coolfmlagos accepted me Nov 1st 2004 as an intern, dusty; unprepared & knew absolutely nothing abt radio.
“I was this kid with fear, doubtful but by hands were held by one of my most selfless colleagues ever from Dan Foster (RIP)“AUNTY B” @daddyfreeze @mannieessien @estheroyegue @tallestmessiah (my guy and mezuzah partner 😂) @ruccibella @olisaadibua .. you were the first set of guys that gave me the little light to grow after GOD.
“Creating shows like “Cool Nigerian vibe” “Superstar Wednesday” and “Office Concert” gave radio a lift from just foreign music to 70% of Nigerian music and content. It was a win for us all.. I can’t even explain my journey cos its a lot. It was a rollercoaster of the good, the bad, the awesome, and the ugly.”
