Reactions Trail Moment Mr. Macaroni Drags Twitter User’s Father In Response To A Tweet About D’banj

Nigerian actor, skit maker and activist, Mr. Macaroni in a response to a tweet by a Twitter user had dragged her father into the conversation, sparking reactions from many users on whether he was right or wrong.

Following the arrest and detention of popular Nigerian musician, Oladapa Daniel Oyebanji known as Dbanj by Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) over allegations of NPower fraud, the Twitter user made a post directed at Mr. Macaroni urged people to imagine it was the actor that was arrested instead.

In her tweet, she insinuated that people’s reaction would have been different if the actor was arrested instead of Dbanj simply because he is an opposing voice and people are most likely to see a foul play in the arrest.

Responding to the apparent attack on his person, Mr. Macaroni dragged the user’s father into the conversation, asking her to imagine it was her father that was arrested.

Reactions

“Macaroni, involving people’s loved ones in ur clapbacks isn’t right; Especially their parents. Show some respect. Direct ur response to whoever triggers u. Fans will hype ur acts but u should kn¤w better cos as a public figure whatever u do is emulated by many. Tread carefully.” – @DanielRegha

“Honestly with the level of respect I have for you,  I don’t think this is right frm u. Her father is innocent of dis. She said such words not her father. And she didn’t even involve your father.  Apologise to her father pls.  You’re a public figure.” – @beetwo40
