Veteran Nollywood actor, Chiwetalu Agu, has said that prayers alone cannot end poverty,
Agu, who stated this in a viral video he shared on X,
dismissing the popular belief that poverty can be prayed away.
He insisted that only hard work and diligence can produce
lasting prosperity, adding that while prayer is powerful, it becomes
meaningless without corresponding effort.
“Yes, prayer connects you to divine wisdom and favour, but
work is the channel through which blessings manifest,” he explained.
The actor urged Nigerians to abandon the manna mentality and
embrace hard work, stressing that even divine favour requires human
participation.
“Poverty does not die by fire. I repeat, poverty cannot die
by fire, pray from now to 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 a channel through which blessings manifest. You can pray
all day for success, but if you refuse to walk plan or act, you will still
remain poor. God blesses effort, not idleness,” he said.
