Popular comedians Oluwaseyitan Aletile aka Seyi Law and Adebowale Adedayo aka Mr Macaroni on Thursday had a clash over comments on the latter’s rise to fame.
Seyi Law referencing a video shared via his X.com page claimed Macaroni begged him for a skit opportunity at his mother’s birthday party and not only did he allegedly give him the platform, but he even wrote the skit that supposedly shot Macaroni to fame.
He wrote, “I remember my cousin, #toluthejesusbaby, disturbed me several times to meet this young, talented Nigerian, and he brought him to my mother’s birthday in January 2020. I spoke with him, and I agreed to support his craft.
“I wrote this script for him and went ahead to act with him, and like they say, the rest is history. Many skit makers benefited from my benevolence by using my voice, where I shouted, “Yeeee! Yeeeee!!” in their skits without royalty payment. “Kundus” to them for their massive success.”
However, Mr Macaroni refuted the claims with pictures of conversations between the duo.
According to Macaroni, it was Seyi Law who allegedly slid into his DM and they had collaborated to develop the skit idea together.
He wrote, “Ehya Uncle Seyi, you shouldn’t be doing this to yourself. I am ashamed that you are doing this and it breaks my heart that I also have to respond to you this way to correct some of these unnecessary lies.
“Firstly, I never asked your cousin to reach out to you on my behalf. How could he have brought me to ask for your support in 2020 when it was you who reached out to me in December 2019 telling me you had an idea that would do so well if we worked on it together.
“Contrary to your claim that you agreed to support me when Tolu brought me to your Mom’s birthday in January 2020, you invited me yourself for the birthday celebration and I honored you with my presence.”
Speaking on fame, Macaroni refuted stating that he had become famous from his “Daddy Wa” contents.
“Bear in mind that I was already a viral sensation at this time with the daddy wa contents having almost 100,000 followers which is why you reached out with the idea.
“I don’t deny that collaborating with you on that content was a big deal for me for which i showed love and respect and reciprocated when you also called upon me to help you promote your show”, he added.
