Nigerian international and new Wolverhampton Wanderers signing,Tolu Arokodare , has humorously claimed he has "all the experience" needed to pilot an aircraft. The jest was part of a broader announcement regarding his ambitious plan to acquire a private jet.
The striker, who was recently crowned the winner of the prestigious 2025 Ebony Shoe award for the best African player in the Belgian league before his move to the Premier League, took to his Snapchat to share his future goals. After a period of significant professional success and a high-profile transfer, he revealed his intention to purchase a private jet, citing the extensive travel demands of a modern footballer.
In a witty follow-up post, he quipped about his newfound "experience," writing, “I think I have all the experience I need to land a plane because of the way I’ve been flying since the start of this month.” This clever pun appears to be a double entendre, referencing both his actual frequent flights and his exceptional form on the pitch, where he has been "flying" past opponents.

The conversation took an amusing turn when he directly addressed Nigeria’s global Afrobeat sensation, Davido, in the comments. Acknowledging the singer's own lavish acquisition, he wrote, “Davido you Dey try no worry,” which loosely translates to a commendation meaning "Davido, you've done well, don't worry." This friendly nod recognizes Davido’s well-publicized ownership of a private jet, positioning it as a source of inspiration. This charming interaction offers a glimpse into the aspirational and supportive nature within communities of high-achieving Nigerian celebrities.
