N500m debt: I’m not accepting donations, says Mr Macaroni
Popular skit maker and activist, Mr Macaroni, has made it clear that he is not seeking financial assistance despite revealing his shocking N500m debt struggles. In a chat with Saturday Beats, the comedian said he only shared the experience for others to learn from and not because he needed help. “I’m not accepting any help or donations. I shared the story majorly because I wanted people to learn from my mistakes”, he stated.
Recall that Mr Macaroni recently shocked fans by revealing his financial struggles, prompting an outpouring of support from colleagues and followers. In a heartfelt social media post, the comedian admitted to being burdened by debts exceeding half a billion naira, after falling victim to a scam and a failed investment between 2021 and 2022. He also acknowledged that financial recklessness and excessive generosity played a role in his predicament. The comedian revealed how the weight of his debts left him overwhelmed and that betrayal from someone he considered a close friend further destabilised him. Yet, with unwavering resilience, he gathered strength to overcome the hurdles, guided by his faith and the support of loved ones.
