Popular skitmaker, Mr Macaroni has come out to open up on getting arrested by law enforcement during the ENDSARS protests. He recently had his say while speaking with Chude Jideonwo on the With Chude podcast, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, he was completely naked and molested in police custody, and he saw the hate in the eyes of the officers while they tortured him.
Macaroni added that it was after the horrid experience that all the fear in him completely disappeared.
His words, “I feel I should be involved because God has given me the platform today, not to be popular, but so that I can use the platform to speak up for those that cannot speak for themselves. How can I ask others to make sacrifices that i am not willing to make.
Trust me, that skit does not do justice to what we went through in that place. I had to do it that way so that people could still watch; I was completely naked. These guys stripped us naked and I was molested. It was after that moment and after these guys tortured me that I saw the hate in their eyes. I saw how angry they were at me and they did. I’m sure that if I was not released, they could have done more.
They were happy; it was a thing of joy for them doing that. They were like, ‘Macaroni, you’re the one who loves to talk,’ and they were mentioning names. I’m still angry at certain names, and I made these things clear.
It was after that experience that all the fear in me disappeared. Before that, I used to be very afraid. Now people see me and be like, ‘You’re very courageous, but I used to be scared. These people can just decide one day to kill someone.”
WOW.
