Woli Arole slams Nigerians who mocked church testimonies
Popular comedian and actor, Woli Arole, has spoken out against Nigerians who ridicule church testimonies and supernatural experiences, delivering a strong message to the so-called “woke” crowd. In a post on his Instagram page, the entertainer addressed the increasing criticism of religious claims, particularly those from The Lord’s Chosen church, which have recently gone viral on social media.
Woli Arole, known for infusing humor with spirituality in his work, expressed concern over the growing trend of mocking testimonies that involve extraordinary or miraculous claims. His open letter, addressed to his generation, highlights the significance of spiritual awareness in a world often dominated by skepticism and modern ideologies.
In his post, Arole urged people to acknowledge the spiritual dimension of life, reminding them that dismissing or ridiculing supernatural occurrences does not make them any less real. He warned that while some may view these events as implausible, they may one day find themselves facing situations beyond their understanding.
“A letter to my generation: I see a lot of assumed WOKE people that love to mock anything supernatural. See, I pray you don’t enter into trouble before you realize that life is spiritual!” Arole wrote passionately. “Your opinions or cruise don’t change the truth! Can you hear me at the back?”
His remarks appeared to be a direct response to the controversy surrounding testimonies from The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries. The church, known for its passionate and fervent worship services, has been the subject of intense online debate, with several testimonies circulating on social media. These testimonies, often involving claims of divine intervention, have drawn both praise from believers and ridicule from skeptics who view them as exaggerated or implausible.
Arole’s call to respect spiritual experiences and church testimonies comes at a time when many Nigerians are engaging in online discourse about faith, miracles, and the supernatural. The debate reflects a broader cultural clash between traditional religious beliefs and a more “woke” generation that often seeks evidence and rationale for spiritual phenomena.
By addressing the critics directly, Arole is not only defending the faith of many Nigerians but also challenging the idea that spiritual experiences are to be treated as fodder for jokes or cynicism. He stressed that while everyone is entitled to their opinion, dismissing the spiritual realm as non-existent or irrelevant could prove to be shortsighted.
His message has resonated with many who feel that faith and spirituality are deeply personal matters and should be respected, even if one does not fully understand or believe in them. The post has generated significant engagement on social media, with many fans and followers showing their support for Arole’s stance.
As the debate continues to unfold, Woli Arole remains a prominent voice advocating for faith and the recognition of the supernatural, urging Nigerians to maintain an open mind and respect diverse beliefs.
