Woli Arole Reflects on Motivational Speaker’s Relocation to the US
In a candid Instagram post, Nigerian comedian and preacher Woli Arole shared a personal story about a motivational speaker who once claimed they would work together to build Nigeria. According to Arole, the speaker, whom he referred to as his “Egbon” (elder), had always expressed a strong desire to help improve the nation, telling him, “Arole, I am a nation builder, we would build Nigeria together.” However, Arole recently discovered that the same motivational speaker had relocated to the United States, explaining that he could now “build from afar.”
The comedian’s post reflects on the irony of someone who once emphasized their commitment to building Nigeria but chose to leave for a life abroad. This situation left Arole contemplating the complex realities faced by those who often promise to work for change but ultimately seek opportunities outside the country.
Earlier in December 2024, Woli Arole had shared a prophecy for 2025, warning that the year would not be kind to women involved with sugar daddies or side chicks, and urging men who neglect their wives for younger women to prepare for regret. He also warned against the rise of ritual killings, particularly among young women, urging them to reconsider relationships with fraudsters and to value their destinies over material gains.
Throughout his career, Woli Arole has also spoken out about the importance of gratitude and not forgetting those who help individuals rise to success. He has consistently used his platform to address social issues and offer moral guidance, often calling for a greater sense of responsibility and respect in society.
Arole’s message about the motivational speaker serves as a reminder of the challenges many face in striving to bring about change, especially when personal interests or opportunities abroad may lead to abandoning such commitments.
