Comedian and activist Mr Macaroni has criticized the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) over what he describes as hypocrisy by the party.
His remarks came after President Bola Tinubu granted pardons to 175 convicts and ex-convicts, stirring public debate.
The criticism also followed the resurfacing of an old tweet by Dada Olusegun, a presidential media aide, who in 2013 had strongly opposed the pardon of former Bayelsa governor Diepreye Alamieyeseigha by the Goodluck Jonathan administration.

At the time, Olusegun had suggested that civil society groups should protest against the decision.
He had written: “In saner climes, civil society organizations should be on the streets protesting the pardon of the criminal Alams by now.”
Mr Macaroni reacted to the contrast between past statements and current actions of the government, saying the party now engages in practices it once condemned.
He described the situation as a combination of corruption and loyalty to questionable supporters, calling it a “marriage of doom and misfortune.”
He wrote: “Every evil that the APC once condemned, they now practice and support. APC is a party filled with the most corrupt people surrounded by the worst sycophants. A marriage of doom and misfortune! Tueh Kelebe!”
