Ace comedian, Acapella, has disclosed that thugs loyal to Lagos State Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab threatened him for claiming Lagos smells.
Recall that Scott Iguma was earlier countered by Wahab when the popular influencer claimed Lagos smells and is filled with “big mosquitoes”.
The commissioner attacked the influencer, saying that some individuals who migrate to Lagos from other states in search of better opportunities are deliberately trying to tarnish the image of the state, accusing them of leveraging social media to “propagate harmful narratives” and undermine the state’s progress.
Acapella then accused the commissioner of applying double standards based on ethnicity and origin.
This led to heated social media exchanges between the comedian and supporters of the Lagos State Government.
Acapella revealed via his X handle on Tuesday that he received several threats during his fallout with the commissioner.
He wrote, “Over The Past days, As expected, Ive received several DMs and Few Calls making empty treats here and there. But, let me make it clear, that No Nigerian Is More Nigerian Than Any Other Nigerian. Don’t let anybody gaslight you into believing you are de marketing the country; especially when you point out the ills that befalls us as a Nation.
“The first step to solving any problem is to first identify there’s one. We are all we have. I hope with these few points of mine. I rest my case for now.”
