What Macaroni Reacts After President Tinubu’s Pardon, Prerogative of Mercy 

Seun Emmanuel Content creator and activist, Mr Macaroni, has tagged the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, as a party filled with the most corrupt members. Mr Macaroni stated this amid the ongoing controversy and criticism trailing the recent presidential pardon granted to some convicted criminals in Nigeria. President Bola Tinubu granted pardon to 175 drug barons, human traffickers, murderers, illegal miners, and other notorious criminals last week. The development sparked criticism and condemnation from Nigerians, especially on social media. A user @DOlusegun wrote, “In saner climes, civil society organisations should be on the streets protesting pardon of the criminal alarms by now”. Reposting the post on his X handle, Mr Macaroni accused APC of now practising all the evils they once condemned without conscience. While describing APC as a marriage of doom, Macaroni wrote, “Every evil that the APC once condemned, they now practice and support. APC is a party filled with most corrupt people surrounded by the worst sycophants. A marriage of doom and misfortune!”
