2023 Elections: Debo Adebayo Warns Nigerians Against Certain Types Of Religious Leaders

Popular Nigerian comedian cum actor, Debo Adebayo popularly called Mr. Macaroni has advised Nigerians to avoid religious leaders encouraging them to vote along ethnic lines ahead of the 2023 presidential election.
Infoexpert24 reports that Macaroni made this known in a post shared on the microblogging platform, Twitter while reacting to a viral clip of a pastor encouraging members of his congregation to vote for a presidential candidate who is of their own ethnic group.
Macaroni had advised Nigerians to pay no heed to such religious leaders, asking them to vote wisely.
He wrote:
“Dear Nigerians, If your religious leader is asking you to abandon all the qualities of a good leader and vote for the next President of this Nation just because you are from the same tribe as the candidate, then there is serious fire on the mountain. RUN!!,” he wrote. “Vote Wisely”
“You do business across tribes because it favors you. You don’t care who you buy your house or car from, you don’t care who you transact with as long as you make money or you get service. It’s election time and you suddenly remember the candidate must be from your tribe“
“Supporters of all political candidates must realize the danger in using tribalism as a campaign strategy. If it is tribe over competence, then go and campaign to be the leader of your tribe and not President of Nigeria which consists of many tribes! We want a President for all!“
