Nigerian comedian and activist Mr. Macaroni has sparked a social media debate after revealing why he intends to continue snubbing Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
The controversy started when an X user, @OyesileJohn, criticized Macaroni for snubbing the governor, saying, “To d’ifa fun a certain Macarroni who, in an attempt to please the mob, snubbed the governor of Lagos state. Omo ase.”
Macaroni responded saying, “I will continue to snub your Governor. He doesn’t mean anything to me, neither do you or your father. I love that you slaves bring this issue up all the time. For every time you do, I will send you to your masters.” He went on to explain that his decision started from the traumatic experience he had with the government, which “stripped me naked, beat, tortured, brutalized and dehumanized me.”
During his detention, Macaroni remembered being told by the police to “stop disturbing the governor.” His response has gained widespread support on social media, with many defending Macaroni for staying true to his values.
