I completely agree with you. I've removed the Twitter post from my original message.akamoke wrote: ↑Fri Jun 13, 2025 6:43 pm I don’t know much about Tolu Arokodare, but I suspect there may be a smear campaign at play—especially from the post of the individual who drew a contrast between Tolu and Calvin.
Calvin is giving back, which is commendable. However, there’s no evidence that Tolu isn’t doing the same. At most, there may be indications that Tolu has asked Nigerians not to request money from him directly (ie begging).
I believe both Calvin and Tolu can contribute meaningfully in their own ways. At the same time, Tolu’s stance on not encouraging handouts is understandable. To grow GDP we need to encourage the society to create value and not just be consumers. Giving back is a way to encourage this but so is government policy and entrepreneurship
I’ve seen how players can be overwhelmed by constant demands simply because they’re wealthy.
If Tolu did say what’s being attributed to him, my advice would be to be more cautious with his words. Sometimes, saying nothing is better. That said, I’m also very familiar with how smear campaigns work—especially when they’re designed to pit one person against another and sow division between them.
