Popular content creator, Mr Macaroni said those defending the mob killings of 16 travellers in Uromi, Edo State are doing a great disservice to the nation.

He said there is no justification for jungle justice, noting that it must be unanimously condemned.

Mr Macaroni stated this in an X post on Monday.

“Dearest Nigerians, please we must resist the urge to defend evil of any kind.

“Crime is Crime!Whenever we justify crime, we open the door for criminals to keep committing crime.

“We cannot be counting scores with the lives of Nigerians while those that are responsible for safeguarding the lives of the people continue to play politics.

The mobbing and killing of the 16 northern hunters in Edo State is evil just as any previous attack on the lives of Edo people is also evil.

“The killing or destruction of lives and properties of any Nigerian in any state is evil!”

He added, “We have a duty to speak against evil at all times whether it affects us or not lest we lose our humanity.”
