Don Jazzy Ignites Controversy with Rumored N4 Million Donation to Bobrisky—Why Are Fans So Outraged? Let’s Break Down the Drama!
A wave of anger has swept across social media as fans of Nigerian music mogul Michael Collins Ajereh, popularly known as Don Jazzy, express their shock and disappointment over rumours that he gifted N4 million to Idris Okuneye, widely known as Bobrisky, a controversial Nigerian crossdresser.
The uproar began when Bobrisky publicly acknowledged receiving substantial donations from several high-profile male celebrities, with Don Jazzy allegedly contributing a hefty N4 million. Other notable figures mentioned included football star Victor Osimhen, who reportedly gave N3 million, actor Yhemo Lee with a donation of N1.5 million, and socialite Abu Abel, who chipped in with N1 million.
The controversy escalated further after Bobrisky’s public appreciation of these male donors, following his earlier recognition of female celebrities such as Tonto Dikeh and Funke Akindele, who collectively donated N18.7 million. Don Jazzy’s fans, however, were particularly incensed by his alleged involvement, accusing him of endorsing and normalizing what they view as the promotion of LGBTQ+ practices in Nigeria—a country where such topics remain highly sensitive and polarizing.
Fans have taken to Don Jazzy’s Instagram page in droves, bombarding him with critical comments, expressing their dismay and frustration. Many feel betrayed by the music producer’s rumoured support for Bobrisky, seeing it as a departure from traditional values and a move that could potentially influence younger generations. This backlash highlights the deep-rooted cultural and societal tensions surrounding issues of gender identity and sexual orientation in Nigeria, where discussions around these topics often spark intense debate and controversy.
