In that particular skit, Trinity Guy feigned he was under attack from gunmen.

Unaware it was a prank, passers-by were seen scampering for safety from the supposed attack.

The video generated outrage on social media, with many people calling out the comedian for the “extreme prank”.

Also, in the video that involved the female minor, Adejobi retweeted the skit and called for the arrest of Trinity Guy, saying he should be detained and charged in court.

The force image maker had previously warned skit makers who use pranks for a living to regulate them because they endanger Nigerian lives.

The skit maker had on Thursday spoken up on the demand for his arrest by Adejobi.

In a new video posted on Facebook, the skit maker expressed gratitude to his followers and also appreciated Adejobi for his fatherly role in calling pranksters who go overboard with their craft to order.
