Social media personality and self-acclaimed financial expert, Ojaigho Prosper, popularly known as GehGeh, has said that women who criticise him online often behave differently when they meet him in real life, stating that he receives more attention from women offline than men.
Speaking in an interview with Saturday Beats, GehGeh reflected on his rise to social media fame, stating that his journey began with a desire to share real-life financial lessons rather than chase online popularity.
He said, “I was simply coming from a place where I wanted to share my experiences because I felt I had enough knowledge and life experiences to share with people.”
He recalled that one of his earliest viral videos focused on why renting an apartment could, in some cases, be better than building a house, a perspective he said resonated with many viewers. According to him, the video gained wider attention after it was reposted by music executive, Don Jazzy.
Geh Geh said his rise to fame came as a surprise, adding that he only realised the scale of his influence when strangers began approaching him in public to share how his content impacted their lives.
However, his views on relationships and masculinity have often sparked criticism online, with some accusing him of promoting misogynistic ideas. He dismissed the label, insisting that the backlash is often rooted in insecurity.
“I have noticed that women don’t like my advice online because many of them feel that if their husbands or boyfriends watch my videos, they may stop giving them money the way they used to,” he said.
He, however, maintained that his offline experiences tell a different story.
“When women see me in real life, they approach me more than men do. The way they react to me online and in person are two completely opposite things,” he added.
Geh Geh also defended his stance on financial discipline in relationships, explaining that his content originally focused on personal finance before evolving into relationship commentary.
“I realised that a lot of the financial problems men face come from investing in relationships and partners they shouldn’t be investing in,” he said.
Addressing questions about his personal life, he confirmed that he has had multiple relationships, adding that his cultural background permits polygamy.
He also responded to public criticism over his sister’s recent claim that he does not support her financially, insisting that his philosophy on self-reliance applies equally to family members.
“I recently transferred N5m to her,” he said, adding that both of them share the same upbringing and opportunities.
On trending conversations surrounding celebrity relationships, Geh Geh criticised the engagement between fellow content creators, Peller and Jarvis, describing it as unsustainable.
“I swear, it pained me. The boy is constantly performing,” he said, arguing that young relationships built on public attention often struggle in the long term.
