Popular Nigerian comedian turned prophet, Bayegun Oluwatoyin, known as Woli Arole, has delivered a heartfelt appeal on behalf of Nigerians living abroad. In a post on his Instagram page, the prophet emphasized the need for gratitude and understanding among those receiving financial support from family members overseas.

Instead, he advocated responding to hatred, pride, and evil with love, humility, and goodness. Woli Arole continues to use his platform to share valuable insights and foster positive attitudes within the community.
