Nigerian skitmaker and Nollywood actor Debo Adedayo, better known as Mr Macaroni, has fumed at a social media user over an accusation of rape. A post on Naija News reports that an X user accused Macaroni of raping a 17-year-old girl and of using the police to oppress the victim’s family. The statement read: “This guy actually raped 17 year old girl and used police to oppress her family. Now he’s an activist?”
In response, Mr Macaroni pointed out that the allegation comes from a supporter of President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC), stressing that he is not new to their lies. He wrote that, although he normally avoids responding to such tweets to prevent giving them more visibility, the nature of the horrendous and distasteful accusation compelled him to speak. He stated:
“Normally I shouldn’t respond to a tweet like this because I would just be giving it more visibility. But because of the nature of the horrendous and distasteful accusation, I have to. This is a Tinubu and APC supporter. “I am not new to their lies and attacks anytime I criticize their evil government! But this isn’t just any other attack, this is a false accusation of rape which any sane human being should never use as propaganda simply because I am holding our government accountable as every good citizen of this country should. “But again, this is an APC supporter. I do not naturally expect any form of sanity or dignity from him or her.”
Summary and context are preserved as reported: the accusation was described as false and politically motivated, tied to criticisms of the government, and Mr Macaroni asserted he does not expect sanity or dignity from the involved APC supporter.
