Man moves from seminary to solar business
Identified as @deravoltage on TikTok, the man narrated how someone recently referred to him as a Catholic priest.
He said:
“Got a call today and was addressed as Rev. Fr. Chidera. I’m now Dera Voltage, solar dealer. Never imagined I’ll quit and be a businessman. It’s always funny when I get calls from people that didn’t know I’m no longer in the priestly and seminary system.”
In the comments, he added:
“Yeah, it was the hardest, riskiest and best decision of my life. I was smart enough to quit before getting ordained. Wasn’t worth it to me. Saw no reason to continue. It was a childhood dream, enrolled after primary school.
“I knew going for theology will be a waste of my time. So, I left after philosophy. It stopped making sense. But na business and contracts I need, not tithe and offering 😅 When you need solar or see who needs, remember the name DeraVoltage.
