December 06, (THEWILL) – Skitmaker and actor, Debo Adebowale, aka Mr Macaroni, has criticised those who support corrupt politicians, calling them traitors who contribute to the nation’s systemic failures.
In a series of posts made on X, he took a strong stand against corruption and the misuse of power by public officials and called out supporters of such acts.
“Politicians will come and go! The only constant thing is the country!” he declared.
“When you support corrupt politicians for whatever reason, you contribute to the rot in the system and reduce any tiny chance to make things better. You are a traitor, and you have no shred of dignity!”
His comments come in the wake of the controversial arrest of human rights lawyer, Dele Farotimi, whose detention has sparked widespread outrage. Since the arrest and detention, Macaroni has condemned the incident.
In another post, he wrote, “How can the system in which the people seek justice be so Criminal? Dele Farotimi Called It and the script plays itself right before our eyes!!! Oppressors have completely taken over the country and you can now be the Aggrieved, Judge and Jury all at once in Nigeria.
“For how long will the Nigerian Police continue to allow themselves to be used by the ‘High and Mighty’ to oppress Nigerians?” he asked. The comedian also criticised the misuse of civil matters for political retaliation, lamenting that the rich and powerful often “manipulate the system without consequences,” he wrote on X.
