Popular Nigerian skitmaker and activist, Adebowale Adedayo, known as Mr Macaroni, has sparked renewed political discussion on social media by responding to old tweets from President Bola Tinubu, originally posted in 2014 during the Goodluck Jonathan administration.
These tweets, made when Tinubu was a prominent opposition leader within the All Progressives Congress (APC), criticized the then-ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on matters of national trust, security, and leadership competence.
Mr Macaroni rephrased and reposted these same tweets, substituting the PDP and Jonathan’s names with APC and Tinubu’s, to draw attention to what he and many others perceive as comparable or worsening problems under the current administration.

One of Tinubu’s tweets from September 24, 2014 read, “The entire nation has lost its trust in the ruling party, PDP. It is a challenging time and we have to be very careful.”
Mr. Macaroni mirrored Tinubu’s original tweets, replacing the relevant names. For example, in response to Tinubu’s statement about national trust in the PDP Mr. Macaroni posted:”The entire nation has lost its trust in the ruling party, APC. It is a challenging time and we have to be very careful.”
Similarly, when Tinubu condemned attacks on Christian worshippers in 2014 and questioned President Jonathan’s competence
“The slaughtering of Christian worshippers is strongly condemnable. It calls to question the competence of Jonathan to protect Nigerians,” Tinubu tweeted in 2014.
Mr. Macaroni replied:“The slaughtering of Christian worshippers is strongly condemnable. It calls to question the competence of Tinubu to protect Nigerians.”
Tinubu had also tweeted in 2014, “Nigeria’s security situation is precarious, Nigerians are tired of excuses and explanations. They want protection for their lives and property.”
And in response to Tinubu’s 2014 tweet about Nigeria’s precarious security situation, Mr. Macaroni retweeted, “Nigeria’s security situation is precarious Nigerians are tired of excuses and explanations. They want protection for their lives and property.”
