A comment on Mr. Macaroni’s post addressing Nyesom Wike read, “The worst mistake you can ever make is fight for Nigerians.” This comment reflects a disheartening mindset of cynicism and apathy toward activism.
Such remarks discourage efforts to hold public officials accountable and foster a dangerous culture where individuals stop advocating for positive change. While frustrations with societal ingratitude are understandable, the solution lies in persistent advocacy, not withdrawal. If everyone avoids speaking up, progress becomes impossible. Mr. Macaroni’s call for respect and accountability reminds us that leadership should serve the people—whether or not they seem appreciative in the short term.
