Comedian Debo Adebayo popularly known as Mr Macaroni has been arrested by some police officials at the Lekki toll gate.
Macaroni joined other protesters to register their anger over the planned reopening of the Lekki toll gate following the alleged killing of protesters on October 20, 2020.
The comedian was arrested alongside other protesters.
In a live Instagram post before his phone and those of other arrested protesters were seized, the comedian lamented that “Lekki is under military rule.”
He said, “How did you think the reopening of tollgate is the next line of action? If you didn’t do that today, we won’t have a right to be here.
“It is a disrespect to say that you want to reopen at this tollgate. Are you spitting on the graves of the dead?
