Nollywood actor and activist, Debo Adedayo, has reacted to the reports that have surfaced online about former first lady, Patience Jonathan.

Taking to his official X page, the comedian lamented about the injustice in the country. According to him, it is so painful.
Mr Macaroni also wondered if Patience Jonathan even still remembers that she has people locked up in detention since 2019.
The movie star then condemned the pattern of rich people abusing power by indiscriminately locking up people who cannot fight for themselves.
He wrote: “The injustice in this country is so painful!!! According to this report, these men and women have been locked up for over five years without a court conviction!!
Does Madam Patience Jonathan even remember that they are still in Prison???
We must stand against this pattern of abusing power that allows rich or influential people lock up others because they cannot speak or fight for themselves. By law, they are innocent until proven guilty!”
