Adebowale Debo Adedayo, also known as Mr.

But a Twitter user on Wednesday drew Macaroni’s attention to the Obi-Datti campaign flyer with his image on it.
The user said: “Thought @mrmacaronii said he would not be campaigning for any party.”
Reacting to the tweet, Macaroni, in a post shared on his Twitter, distanced himself from the campaign flyer, saying his picture was used without his approval.
