Debo Adebayo alias Mr. Macaroni, a popular comedian, has alleged threats to his life over his position on the planned resumption of tolling at the Lekki tollgate.
Mr Macaroni, who in tweets recently opposed the planned resumption of tolling at the Lekki Tollgate, claimed to have been subjected to multiple death threats on social media
One of the alleged threat from a Twitter user identified as Prince Tamiyu Lawal questioned the comedian’s involvement in the Lekki toll gate protests.
He stated that Macaroni’s involvement was foolish and unnecessary.
The tweet reads: “This macaroni of a guy will most likely end his life untimely because of foolishness.
”Very senseless and unpatriotic. What is his business with Lekki Toll Gate? I pray I get hold of him at the toll gate, I will k!ll him.”
The skit maker was arrested in 2021 for protesting against the Lekki toll gate reopening after the #ENDSARS protests.
Mr Macaroni said he receives such threats constantly, calling the attention of Lagos State Government to them.
“This is one of the many threats I receive regularly. Nigerian police and the Lagos state government. i love you and I know you love me too,” he tweeted on Friday
