Rave-of-the-moment Instagram comedian, Debo Adebayo aka Mr Macaroni has called out Sahara Reporters over alleged plot to hijack the ongoing #EndSARS protests.
Sahara Reporters is owned by Omoyele Sowore, a 2019 presidential candidate that was arrested last year and detained for weeks for demanding a revolution.
He has been accused of trying to hijack the protest, which is holding across the nation, for personal gains and using his medium to push his narrative.
Taking to Twitter on Saturday morning, Mr Macaroni wrote, “Please don’t give Sahara Reporters any attention!!! Na Wayray dem be!! Dem dey disguise!! This movement cannot be hijacked by desperate People who are obsessed with being called heroes!! The true heroes are all Nigerian Youths fighting this fight for freedom!!! #EndSARS”
However, he did not explain how the medium or its publisher was plotting to hijack the protest.
Another Twitter influencer, @Akeula_trendy corroborated Mr Macaroni’s point.
He wrote, “SAHARA REPORTERS ARE DEFAMERS, SOWORE IS A DESPERATE BEING, he is just disguising.. He wants to hijack the #EndSarsProtests but unfortunately, the protest doesn’t being to one person, the accolades belongs to the youth generally #EndSARS”.
