"We have servants and slaves. If you are a slave, you cannot surpass your master, but if you are a servant, you can surpass your master. All my workers are servants. Kids of today can’t serve. We have two types of wealth: one is what you have and use your brain to work with, and the other is what God blesses you with."

"Build systems so people don’t have to struggle and go through what you went through. “You have to serve before becoming a millionaire.” OMG, Africa. So, a 16-year-old with a great idea can’t become a millionaire through funding unless he first serves or suffers? Hmm."

"When they become successful, they just say anything. We didn’t come to make money in this. We only came to live. Once you’re living normally, you’re good to go. Money is just a system created by man, and it’s skewed to make only a few rich and the many others suffer to get. 🙏."
