Popular Nigerian comedian, Debo Adebayo better known as Mr Macaroni has cautioned Nigerian celebrities against taking bribes from politicians.
In commemoration of the one-year anniversary of the ENDSARS protest, Macaroni urged his fellow Nigerian celebrities to have some compassion for the lives of thousands that are suffering under the harsh economic conditions.
Macaroni made his submission in an Instalive video on his Instagram page. He opined that when celebrities wish to collect bribes from corrupt politicians, he advised them to consider the millions of lives that are being wrecked in the country and rather choose to fight for the masses.
In his words: “If you keep enabling the government by collecting money from them every time, think about millions of lives that your greedy decision will ruin.
“If the government gives you 50 million or 100 million, think about what that money will do for millions of poor masses.
“People are seriously suffering in Nigeria. People are homeless, they don’t even know what their next meal will be. Think about them when you decide to extend your hands to collect bribes from our greedy politicians.
“Nigerian celebrities, stop collecting bribes from these politicians and start lending your voices,”
Meanwhile, Don Jazzy has taken to social media to call out the Lagos State Governor over the treatment meted out to a taxi driver by security operatives at Lekki tollgate.
Security officers pepper-sprayed the cab driver, who had a bruised red eye in the video, after attempting to force him into a Black Maria at Lekki Toll Gate following the ongoing #EndSARS commemoration protest.
The cab driver persisted on not joining the Black Maria since he is not a thief, despite the fact that security personnel did not specify the man’s offence.
While being carried by security officers, he was also heard insisting that none of his “family members had entered such a car,” and that he is simply a cab driver.
Don Jazzy, who published the footage on his Instagram account, expressed his displeasure with the police officers’ treatment of the young man.
Don Jazzy wrote: Tomorrow they will tell us no policeman sprayed pepper spray directly into a man’s eyes. 😢💔 #endsars @jidesanwoolu
