Nigerian activist and content creator, Mr Macaroni, has strongly criticized the country’s governance system, citing a lack of accountability and a culture where power and wealth take precedence over justice.

Reacting to the suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, he decried the absence of consequences for those in positions of authority.

“It’s not as if these countries that we call ‘Saner climes’ are not corrupt oo. The difference between these countries and Nigeria is the sense of accountability at the very least. In Nigeria, there is no regard for law and order,” he stated in a post on X on March 7, 2025.

He condemned the widespread abuse of power, pointing to the unchecked actions of government officials and law enforcement agencies.

“From the impunity in the Senate to the shamelessness and abuse of power by security agents, to the total lack of regard for the Nigerian people, everyone is free to act as irresponsibly as they wish so far they have power or money. The real problem we have is the zero consequence for actions,” he said.

His remarks come in the wake of Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s suspension, which followed her accusation of sexual harassment against Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

The senator’s removal from office has sparked national debate on issues of gender inequality and misuse of power within Nigeria’s political space.

Mr Macaroni warned that without accountability, corruption and lawlessness would only continue to flourish.

“The rot in this country will continue to eat deep because no matter the gravity of the offence you commit or the amount of Nigerian lives that are at risk because of the reckless behaviour of a few, money, power and influence will wash the guilty as white as snow,” he added.

His statement has reignited conversations on governance, with many Nigerians echoing concerns over the persistent lack of justice and accountability in the country.
