Nigerian comedian and actor Woli Arole has sparked a thoughtful conversation about privacy in the digital age by addressing why he keeps his family life largely off social media.
In a recent Instagram post, Arole responded to repeated questions from followers curious about his decision to maintain a private home life, despite his vibrant online presence. “I didn’t marry for posting,” he said straightforwardly, emphasizing that the core of his marriage is companionship, not content creation or the pursuit of online approval.
Arole further explained, “I married for companionship,” highlighting that emotional connection and personal intimacy are his priorities, not public attention.
He gently reminded social media users that some aspects of life are better kept private, cautioning against the urge to overshare and depend on platforms for validation. “Not everything about your life should be public. Abeg. What if there was no social media, won’t you live?” he added with a touch of humor.
Arole’s message resonates as a refreshing take on boundaries in a time when sharing every moment is the norm. His lighthearted yet poignant reminder encourages a healthier approach to social media, where the lines between public and private lives are increasingly blurred.
