“Poverty Cannot Die by Fire” — Chiwetalu Agu Urges Nigerians to Combine Prayer with Hard Work
Nigerian actor, Chiwetalu Agu, shares that prayers alone cannot end poverty. The actor spoke against the belief that poverty can be prayed away, countering that mindset with his own perspective.
He stated that prayer alone is not enough and that hard work is also required. “Poverty does not die by fire. I repeat, poverty cannot die by fire. Pray from now till tomorrow — if you don’t work hard, poverty will deal with you.”
“Yes, prayer is powerful; it connects you to divine wisdom and favor. But work is the channel through which blessings manifest. You can pray all day for success, but if you refuse to plan or act, you will still remain poor. God blesses effort, not idleness.”
Popular Nigerian streamer, Carter Efe, has expressed excitement after singer Davido gifted him ₦20 million.
It will be recalled that the singer recently appeared on Carter Efe’s show, where his appearance alone broke records. Following the show, Davido promised to gift the streamer ₦20 million—a promise he later fulfilled.
Carter Efe made the announcement on social media, confirming that the money had been received. “Yeeeee Davido 20 million naira, I don die,” he wrote.
Afrobeats singers and celebrity couple, Simi and Adekunle Gold, have announced that they are expecting their second child.
The news was revealed in a music video by Adekunle Gold, which featured his family. The couple later took to social media to share the video, sparking excitement among fans and loved ones, who flooded the comment section with congratulatory messages.
