Popular Nigerian comedian and actor, Woli Arole, has expressed surprise after a motivational speaker he once admired relocated to the United States despite previously urging Nigerians to remain in the country and contribute to nation-building.
According to Arole, the speaker had consistently preached about staying back to help build “the Nigeria of our dreams.” However, when questioned about his decision to move abroad despite his earlier stance, the speaker reportedly responded that he could “build from afar.”
The comedian’s reaction has sparked conversations about the contrast between public figures’ advice and their personal choices, particularly on issues like relocation and patriotism.
