Mr Macaroni Calls Out Lagos State Commissioner For Ass@ulting Man

Nigerian comedian and actor Adebowale Adedayo, better known as Mr. Macaroni, has taken to social media to blast Toke Benson, the Lagos State Commissioner for Arts, Culture, and Tourism.

The Commissioner was called out by the comedian for ass@ulting a man.

Mr Macaroni, in a series of tweets, has berated the commissioner for her attitude, stating that Nigeria is not in a dictatorship.

He wrote, “Dear Mrs Toke Benson, who do you think you are that you can’t be recorded?? Ok. Commissioner? And so what??

You even have the temerity to ask “who is paying your salary” Is it your money?

A public servant moving like a Dictator.

Saying you will break a citizen’s phone and actually moving to do so?? Outrageous!!!

And I heard another lady asking “do you know who you are talking to”

Who are you? Who is she? Who are all of you gangan??? My goodness.

It seems once you hold a political office in Nigeria you become Lord and Master and all Citizens must become your slaves??”

In response to such behavior, it is crucial to advocate for accountability and transparency in public office.

Public officials should exemplify professionalism and respect for citizens, regardless of the circumstances.

Below are Reactions that trailed the post…

@John Max wrote, “Well said. However, let’s add some balance to things. It’s not always right to think that because you own a phone that has a recorder you can just willfully enter into cameraman mode and video document another person without consideration for their privacy.”

@TheRatedSavageMan, “I’m waiting for her arrest the way the arrest of that woman that abused a child was swift. Except arrest for abuse is meant for mere helpless citizens.”

@Victor Richman said, “You cannot just start recording people without their consent. Mr Macaroni”

@Opeyemi Dmh, “The reason why God hasn’t answered some people prayer to become something is because of this attitude.”

@EBITU stated, “This is Nigeria, where lawlessness is seen as a normal thing in everyday activities. Imagine there is no video. She should have ordered his arrest and said nothing would happen.”
