Popular Nigerian comedian and actor, Mr. Macaroni, is speaking out against the economic hardship plaguing the country. He’s frustrated that Nigerians aren’t holding their leaders accountable for the rising suffering and inflation.
Instead, people are more focused on building relationships with those in power.
Mr. Macaroni took to his social media handle to express his concerns, saying, “The people are suffering! The price of everything is up. Instead of you people to hold your leaders accountable, you are busy kissing their bumbum. E ni ku re!” His statement highlights the need for citizens to demand more from their leaders and stop prioritizing relationships over accountability.
This isn’t the first time Mr. Macaroni has spoken out against the government and societal issues. He’s been vocal about corruption and the need for change in Nigeria. In 2020, he was actively involved in the #EndSARS movement, which sought to end police brutality in the country. He was even arrested by the police during a protest at the Lekki Toll Gate in February 2021.
Mr. Macaroni’s advocacy for social justice and accountability is rooted in his passion for civic empowerment. He believes that citizens have the power to demand change and hold their leaders accountable. Through his comedy skits and social media platforms, he continues to raise awareness about important social issues and inspire Nigerians to take action.
As a renowned comedian and actor, Mr. Macaroni has gained a massive following across Nigeria and beyond. His commitment to social justice and advocacy has earned him recognition and awards, including the Future Awards Africa Nigeria Prize for Content Creation and the City People Music Award for Comedy Act of the Year.
