He wrote on his X account,
“Some of you on here criticize politicians only because you want to be seen by them and called to scrape leftovers at the table.
Some people called out their state governors every day then went behind closed doors to collect envelopes to become praise singers.
It hurts them when they see that not everyone is for sale.”
He added, “They sold their birthright for kopiko and desperately want every other person to sell out just like them, so that they can have someone to share in their shame and misery. It’s a tough world and while most people will compromise there will always be a few good men and women. Stop attacking others for refusing to betray their conscience. The guilt is yours and yours alone to bear.”
End Tribal Bigotry
Macaroni went further to add,
“Lastly, shame on all those who have joined in creating this toxic culture of tribal bigotry.
Using the love and the loyalty that the people have for their respective tribes to heat up the polity and settle political scores is disgraceful and a betrayal to whatever tribe you belong to.
This is what these political slaves do. When they see that they have lost all credibility, they start to instigate tribal wars in a bid to seek relevance.
Kudos to every Nigerian, irrespective of their tribes, who see beyond this mischief and continue to do their best to promote peace and unity among all tribes.
Posterity will judge us all.”
