Popular actor, comedian & content creator, Debo Adedayo also known as "Mr Macaroni" has given reasons why he declined an invitation to visit Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.

Some popular skitmakers: Maryam Apaokagi (Taooma); Josh Alfred (Josh2funny); Ayo Ajewole (Woli Agba); Adebamiro Adeyanju (Mr. Hyenana) and Adeoye Adeyemi Elesho (Yemi Elesho), were among a delegation who met the Vice President yesterday.

The VP was later presented with an awards insignia.

"Daddy Wa" as he is fondly called, bared his mind via a social media microblogging site.

Honestly, I have tried so hard not to say anything about this issue but I have seen some comments and conclusions that do not really sit well with me. My conscience will not allow me to keep mute. So I have to say what I know for my conscience and posterity.

First, I do not think there is an association of skit makers. If there is, then I don’t know anything about it. And that would be fine because I am an Actor/Thespian first before the Tag “Skit Maker”.

So I don’t think those that went to see the VP without me or anyone else meant to sideline me. I want to believe they were invited to see The VP by the organizers of an Award Ceremony the same way I was invited. The only difference is that I declined the invitation.

The reason I declined is simple. As a Citizen, I’m not happy with our leaders and I do not want to associate with them. It’s ok if others believe that sitting with the Govt will change certain things and decide to try it out. I don’t think they should be crucified for that.

I have just seen too much to know that The Govt sees and hears everything. They and their workers are always on the Internet. They know what we cry and complain about and they do nothing about it. So what will sitting down with them to tell them what they already know change?

I don’t know what was discussed in that meeting as I wasn’t there. But I don’t believe those that went would go there to say anything other than demanding for better governance and leadership as we all have been doing all these while.

Where I Stand is that this is election season. The politicians that have abandoned us for years will start coming back to us again to promise heaven and earth. We need to see beyond their deceit. All they care about is photo op. Look around, the PR work has started massively.

When Politicians say they want to engage me, I always tell them to pick a public place, where all of Press would be present. So that I can say my mind as I see it. When they are begging for votes, they come to us publicly. So why do u want to see me privately?

I am no Hero or Saint. I am not Perfect. I am only a Concerned Citizen who wants a better Nation for myself and for every other Nigerian. I use my voice, my craft and my platform to do this and I have been greatly persecuted for it.

This is who I am. It is who I have always been even before Fame. I have suffered so much for it and sometimes I ask myself why I am the way I am. But anytime I how many lives I have been able to impact positively, i am at peace with myself.

I don’t think it would be fair to hold any other person by these standards.

Hoping we all can promote Peace and Unity amongst ourselves and explore whatever means we dim fit to demand for a better Nation for ourselves and generations to come.

Debo. ❤️

********TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERNS*******

Hmmm, election don dey come even pastor sef don dey host celeb,all dis politicians are d same

Hmm...

He has made his point known. He should be respected for that. Not everyone of us wants anything to do with politics.

Respect to Debo.

Association of Skit Makers Industry or what is that?

VP want to use them and catch cruise

Seriously? Nigerian skits industry awards? This is such a joke!

He's just been fair and sincere to himself and what he believes. I like people like him.

Noted. We kip kwayet, nothing will change, you talk to leaders, they will listen and do nothing. What's the way forward?

You know one funny thing, forget all these noise, even if dem allow youths rule it would be worst!!!!

The country is not destined to be great so let's stop wasting our time. Japa if you have the means

As for Mr macaroni, this is an intelligent write up, but I will advice him to follow and go next time because Naija is not worth the stress.

Btw, he should jeje o, before dem blacklist am and stop 'food' from his mouth and nothing would happen.

Pata pata people go shout on top social media that's all

The skit award was presented to the best skit maker in nigera (bubu and osiba nke ojor) dem don play Nigerians tire

Cool

I don't know why i don't just like this VP. Not like he is bad o but just too useless for my liking with his position. Just same way yoruba is kinda a middle ing force that allow aboki to still be ruling us in this morden time.

Errand Houseboy Fake Pastor Inspirational speaker. Abeg make he getat i hate reading about him.

Nobody should abuse me o. If You want me to be happy and get back my normal reasoning Please dash me anything because man is empty,hungry and frustrated.

I salute this guy for understanding that all politicians are the same.

While some idiots are trying to package this short demon just like they packaged the tall demon some years ago.

He is hurt because no one invited him

Debo for president

I must say those comedians or skit makers were happy to see the VP. The same guys that insulted and washed all Nigerian politicians can be seating and smiling with the VP because they feel he will listen? These guys ought to be smarter than this na. Election is less than 2 years away, same old strategy to win the populace’s heart.

Ur businesses If na me ehn

My love for you increased.

Chinua Achebe of a blessed memory declined their useless award too.

The reason you gave was the same reason Achebe gave.

Nonsense and award

""The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children".

Mr Macaroni keep shining through like a light in this present darkness. A day will soon come when the sons of perdition and all their children and associates will be visited with the full pressed wrath and fury of the avenger. Justice shall not be denied.

God bless you Mr macaroni

You have my respect, boss.

Doffs my hat

Terrorist government

Good

This guy is the only celeb I respect by ethics

One who will fight for the masses is an enemy of the leaders.(Nigeria government)

Macaroni, you are great!
And that is why to me , he’ll always be a hero.

Someone who fights for the course of the people even when he’s not really affected by the whole saga. Yet still carries the weight of the world on his shoulders.

Mr. Macaroni all day , everyday ❤️

You sound sensible man..

Nobody missed you and your dry jokes at the meeting.


Taooma is 800 percent better than you big fool

I was even thinking they didn't invite him cos of his constant attacks on our amiable vice president.

You declined it and so?

What is he now feeling like??

Soro soke generation.
They know all that is wrong with Nigeria, but can't proffer a single solution. Come let's talk, dem say 'we are leaderless'

That was how they almost plunged our country into civil war over a fictitious Lekki Massacre. Ogbeni Dipo, Kate Henshaw, Aproko Doctor, J J Omojuwa, etc. all increased their SM followers, while the nation burnt. In fact, while people were dying, Dipo was advertising his CV and travel abroad businesses.

Alaye dey disguise. How do you propose to change a system you don't understand? Chaos is lucrative, they don't want change.
