Nigerian comedian and preacher Woli Arole recently shared an experience involving a motivational speaker who once inspired him with lofty promises.

In an Instagram post, Arole recounted how the speaker had consistently told him he was a “nation builder” and would play a key role in shaping Nigeria’s future. However, the speaker has now relocated to the United States, claiming that he would continue his mission of building the nation from afar.

“This life sha. One of my Egbon wey be motivational speaker, he dey always tell me ‘Arole, I am a nation builder, we would build Nigeria together’. He don relocate to the US now. He said I can build from afar”.
