Nigerian skit-maker Debo Adebayo, popularly called Mr Macaroni, has notified the general public over a death threat he received from a man identified as Prince Tiamiyu Lawal.
This comes amidst the scheduled protest at the Lekki Toll Gate today if it re-opens for operations as directed by the Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
In a post shared on the microblogging platform Twitter, the man identified as Tiamiyu Lawal opined that Mr Macaroni would end his life untimely because of foolishness.
While questioning Mr Macaroni’s business with the Lekki Toll Gate, Tiamiyu Lawal vowed to kill Mr Macaroni if seen at the Toll Gate for protest today.
According to Mr Macaroni, Tiamiyu Lawal’s threat is one of the many threats he received regularly, and he called on the Nigerian Police and Lagos State Government to take action.
The post reads: This Macaroni of guy will most likely end his life untimely because of foolish… very senseless unpatriotic bastard… what’s his business with Lekki Toll Gate. I pray I get hold of him tomorrow at the Toll Gate, I will kill him on sight.
Mr Macaroni wrote: This is one of many threats I receive regularly. Nigerian Police and Lagos state Government… I love you, and I know you love me too.
Kemi Filani News recalls Mr Macaroni who opposed the reopening of the toll gate revealed that he expected the events of police brutality up until October 20, 2020 be formally acknowledged.
He added that the government should tender a public apology and should recommend a police reformation among others.
“I expect that the events of police brutality up until October 20, 2020, are formally acknowledged.
“The recommendations, going from justice for victims; a public apology from the government; police reform and all of that, should be put in place. Anything contrary to what the panel has recommended will not cut it.
“It would simply mean that the government is not willing and ready t accept the reality of things.”
