Comedian Mr Macaroni
A tweep who threatened to kill comedian, Mr Macaroni has tendered a public apology.
The tweep, Prince Tiamiyu Lawal, had vowed to kill Mr Macaroni after the comic act objected to the reopening of Lekki Toll Gate.
After Lagos Commissioner for Information, Gbenga Omotoso, announced the Lekki Concession Company (LCC) will open the toll gate on Friday for business, many celebrities, including Mr Macaroni objected to the move.
The comedian later shared the screenshot of a tweet, claiming he threatened his life last year.
The tweet reads: “This Macaroni of guy will most likely end his life untimely because of foolish… very senseless unpatriotic bastard… what’s his business with Lekki Toll Gate. I pray I get hold of him tomorrow at the Toll Gate, I will kill him on sight.”
Making a u-turn, the twitter user apologised and retracted his post.
“I am writing this tweet in response to a viral tweet about Mr.Macaroni…I sincerely apologise and retract every content of the tweet…We were having an argument before I lost it completely and went beyond limits…I have never k!lled anyone & I will never do…I am very sorry!!” he tweeted.
