Mr. Macaroni Explains Why He Will Keep Ignoring Governor Sanwo-Olu
Mr. Macaroni, a well-known Nigerian comedian, skit maker, and activist, has shared why he refuses to acknowledge Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu publicly.
This revelation came after an X user, @OyesileJohn, criticized Macaroni for ignoring the Governor.
The user posted, “To d’ifa fun a certain Macaroni who, in an attempt to please the mob, snubbed the governor of Lagos state. Omo ase.”
In his response, Mr. Macaroni doubled down on his stance, saying he would continue to ignore Governor Sanwo-Olu, whom he referred to as “your Governor.”
He added, “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.”
Explaining his reason, the skit maker recounted his harrowing experience during the End SARS protests in October 2020.
Mr. Macaroni, whose real name is Debo Adedayo, was among the protesters arrested at the Lekki Toll Gate.
He revealed that he was stripped, beaten, and dehumanized while in detention.
According to him, the police officers who brutalized him told him to “stop disturbing the governor.”
