Nigerian activist and actor Mr. Macaroni has strongly reacted to the ongoing crisis in Enugu, urging the government to take swift and decisive action to protect its citizens.
On March 31, 2025, he took to X, expressing his deep frustration over the government’s silence in the face of escalating violence in the region. “Evil like this should be condemned by all!!” Mr. Macaroni wrote, emphasizing that the government must show zero tolerance for such barbarism.
His passionate plea reflected the growing frustration among the people who feel abandoned by the authorities. He warned that if the government continues to ignore the crisis, citizens might be forced to protect themselves, which could worsen the situation and lead to more unnecessary loss of innocent lives.
Mr. Macaroni’s condemnation of the violence in Enugu was paired with a call for unity and fairness across the nation. He made it clear that injustice, no matter where it occurs, must be condemned. “Injustice is injustice! It doesn’t matter where it happens. North, East, South, or West, we must always speak against it,” he asserted, stressing that no group or tribe should be deemed superior to another.
His words underscored the need for Nigerians to stand together against all forms of injustice, regardless of where or who it affects. For him, the fight for justice is not about tribal or regional lines but about ensuring the rights of all individuals are respected.
In another post, Mr. Macaroni took a direct shot at those who speak out only when the issues at hand personally affect them. He pointed out the hypocrisy of people who remain silent until they themselves are touched by the problem.
“Some of us have always stood up against evil! Irrespective of the tribe, religion, or social status of those involved. We Dey!” he declared, calling out the inconsistency of those who only engage when the injustice hits close to home. He reminded Nigerians that those who have consistently fought for a better society are not driven by personal gain or selective outrage.
Reflecting on the state of the nation, Mr. Macaroni expressed disappointment over the lack of proactive efforts by the masses from the beginning. He noted that if everyone had taken responsibility for standing up against evil from the start, the country would not be in its current state.
“When water finally pass garri, make una dey remember say some of us have been standing up against evil on all levels since we started fighting for a better society,” he added, stressing the importance of collective responsibility in shaping a peaceful and just society.
His statement was both a call to action and a reminder of the work that has been done by those who refuse to remain silent in the face of wrongdoing.
As the violence in Enugu continues, Mr. Macaroni’s calls for government intervention, unity, and consistent activism serve as a powerful reminder that standing up for justice is not optional but necessary.
He concluded his message with a simple but profound sentiment: “Peace to all.” In the midst of chaos, his plea for peace and justice resonates deeply, urging both the authorities and citizens to unite in the fight against injustice for a better, safer Nigeria.
