We could have been dead by now -comedian Mr macaroni

By Anonymous

Nigerian Instagram comedian, Debo Adebayo, widely referred to as Mr Macaroni has shared the horrible experience he had after being arrested by the Nigerian Police Force on Saturday. According to him, they were beaten and stripped naked as if they were criminals.

Mr Macaroni's words:

"firstly, i want to thank everyone for effort they put into ensuring that we all were safely released.

In honesty, it was a horrible experience. I went out not because I’m the only one who is brave enough to protest in Nigeria but because I knew other people would be there as well and also all we wanted was justice.

At some point, I was scared because of the kind of utterances being made by the police officers that arrested us.

I knew people would die. If words weren’t out there about our arrest, they would have killed all of us.

After they arrested us at the Lekki toll gate, we were taken to Adeniji police station where we were beaten and stripped naked.




In fact, if not that videos of our arrest were already all over social media, it would have been another day of mourning the loss of innocent Nigerian youths who came out for a peaceful protest.

The police officials even told us that we are lucky that the news was already everywhere because if it were to be at night, they would have shot us and nothing or nobody will do anything about it."

By
  President Joe Biden announced a series of measures on Tuesday aimed at ramping up coronavirus vaccine allocation and distribution, including the purchase of 200 million more vaccine doses and increased distribution to states by millions of doses next week. With those additional doses, Biden said there would be enough to fully vaccinate 300 million Americans -- nearly the entire US population -- by the end of summer or early fall. He described efforts to combat Covid-19 as a "wartime undertaking." We now have a national strategy to beat Covid-19. It's comprehensive. It's based on science, not politics. It's based on truth, not denial, and it is detailed," he said. As part of the new efforts announced Tuesday, the US will buy 100 million more doses from Pfizer/BioNTech and 100 million more from Moderna -- the two-dose vaccines that have been granted emergency use authorization by the US Food and Drug Administration. Pfizer and Moderna are working to step up p...

By
