A young Nigerian TikTok creator known as “GehGeh” has become an internet sensation after his recent live session on the platform attracted over 177,000 viewers and earned him virtual gifts reportedly valued at more than $30,000.
GehGeh, who describes himself as an orphan without formal education, refers to his platform as the “University of Wisdom and Understanding.”
His content, a blend of streetwise advice, humor, and commentary on relationships and finances, has resonated widely with audiences across Nigeria.
“More than 177,000 people watch my lectures today. Jesus! University of wisdom and understanding, the only university where once you graduate, woman go fear to ask you for money,” he said in a video following the session.
In another post, he reflected on his journey from hardship to recognition, saying:
“I no be graduate too, but by the grace of God, I don find school. I be orphan, but now Nigerians don show me love.”
The viral success has sparked conversations about digital empowerment and the evolving nature of fame in Nigeria.
GehGeh’s rise is being hailed as a testament to how social media platforms like TikTok are creating new opportunities for individuals outside traditional educational and economic systems.
Despite some controversy surrounding his views on women and money, many see his story as an inspiration to underprivileged youth.
His growing fan base, now referring to themselves as “students” of the Geh Geh University, continues to expand, shifting dynamics of influence and success in the digital age.
