Popular comedian and activist, Mr Macaroni, has clarified that he is not seeking financial assistance despite revealing his staggering ₦500 million debt. Speaking with Saturday Beats, the skit maker explained that his intention in sharing his financial struggles was to help others learn from his mistakes—not to solicit donations.

“I’m not accepting any help or donations. I shared the story primarily so people could learn,” he stated.

Mr Macaroni recently shocked fans when he disclosed that he had fallen into heavy debt, a situation stemming from a failed investment and a scam between 2021 and 2022. He also admitted that financial mismanagement and excessive generosity contributed to his predicament. The comedian recounted how the burden of debt left him emotionally drained, compounded by the betrayal of someone he once trusted. However, he emphasized that he has found strength in his faith and the unwavering support of loved ones.

Industry Colleagues Show Support

Following his revelation, numerous celebrities and activists have offered words of encouragement.

Social activist Rinu Oduala dismissed the notion of recklessness, saying, “I can attest to your financial kindness. Even in the midst of this, you still give. May love always triumph.”

Political commentator Morris Monye empathized, stating, “I used to share my struggles too, but I’m learning to hold it in. We will overcome.”

Actor and filmmaker Femi Adebayo commended Mr Macaroni’s openness, saying, “Your good heart came through for you, my brother.”

Actress Kehinde Bankole praised his honesty, calling it “a high level of accountability”, while hypeman Do2dtun described vulnerability as a strength, adding, “You have just unlocked another level of growth.”

Other celebrities, including Broda Shaggi, Ejike Asiegbu, Bisola Aiyeola, Aproko Doctor, and TheOnlyChigul, also sent their support.

Public Reactions Pour In

Fans have resonated deeply with Mr Macaroni’s story, with many sharing their own experiences. One user, @Og_koded94, expressed empathy, writing, “I am in the same shoes. I pray God restores all our hope for a better life.”

Despite his challenges, Mr Macaroni remains determined to move forward, emphasizing the lessons he has learned and his resolve to rebuild.
