Nigerian comedian-turned-preacher Woli Arole has sent a message to the public on how to greet him.
On his Instagram page, he addressed those people who message him to either show him their services or ask for help, advising them to avoid greeting him with ‘Hi Arole’. The actor described it as rude and impolite, vowing never to reply to such messages.
Woli said he would prefer “Good morning” or “Good afternoon,” as he appreciated them for taking note of his instructions.
“Please, this information is for those people who message me either to show me their services or you need me for something.
Please, don’t enter my DM or Email with ‘Hi Arole’.
I find it rude and not polite. I will not reply you.
I would prefer a ‘Good Morning or Good Afternoon instead.
Thank you”.
In a previous post, Woli stressed that people should learn to build relationships before asking for favours. He noted how people tend to ask for help from those they rarely talk with or chat with on WhatsApp or Instagram.
The comedian had criticised content creators participating in the Imbe Challenge, which mocks Children with Down Syndrome. He described such behaviour as wrong, appalling and distasteful, as he noted how people have kids living with this syndrome, and all they need is love and hope from them, not mockery.
Arole sent a message to Nigerians in diaspora, admonishing them not to have a superiority complex because they live outside Nigeria. He claimed that he saw someone, and the person told him he just got back from America in a prideful way. Arole said he replied to the man, letting him know that he stays in Nigeria and he was doing so well.
In different news, Woli knocked woke women who choose surrogacy despite being healthy to carry their babies full term. He enlightened them that it is a blessing for a woman to carry her baby in her womb, admonishing women not to let wokeness derail them.
