Summary: Popular men’s coach Gehgeh is on his knees begging for forgiveness after his wedding stirred massive controversy online. Find out what he said about men who ended their relationships because of his teachings.
If you have been on Nigerian social media recently, you don already hear the gist about Gehgeh — the popular men’s coach who has been selling the “don’t spend on women, don’t marry” gospel for years. Well, the tables have turned, and the internet is not letting him breathe!
The Man Who Preached Against Marriage… Just Got Married
For those who don’t know, Gehgeh built his entire brand around advising men to avoid serious relationships and marriage. He consistently told his followers that spending money on women was a mugu move, and that any man who committed to a woman was setting himself up for pain and poverty.
His content resonated with a lot of men — and many of them, apparently, took his words hook, line, and sinker.
But here is where the wahala started: Gehgeh went ahead and got married himself.
E be like say the cobbler’s children finally got shoes — except this time, the cobbler had been telling everyone that shoes were useless.
“Abeg Forgive Me” — Gehgeh Addresses His Followers
After the backlash washed over him like a Lagos flood in rainy season, Gehgeh released a video that has since gone viral across Twitter (X), Instagram, and TikTok.
In the video, the men’s coach — clearly aware of how much pepper he don put on himself — begged for forgiveness in the most hilarious way possible.
He acknowledged that his teachings had influenced many men to walk away from their relationships and partners, and he did not shy away from addressing what he truly thinks about those men who actually followed his advice to the letter.
Let’s just say… his opinion on them might surprise you.
The Internet Has Zero Mercy
As expected, Nigerians on social media showed up in their numbers to drag, laugh, and deliver hot takes. The ratio of people saying “you deserve this” to those showing sympathy was not even close.
Many pointed out that this is a classic case of a content creator building clout by telling people what they want to hear, only to quietly live the opposite life when the cameras are off.
Some of his former followers who actually broke off relationships based on his teachings are particularly upset — and honestly, you cannot blame them.
What This Teaches Us
Look, this gist is funny, yes — but it also carries a serious lesson. In this age of social media gurus and self-proclaimed life coaches, many Nigerians are quick to restructure their entire lives based on advice from people whose real lives they know nothing about.
Before you allow any internet personality to convince you to burn down your relationship, your career, or your finances — do a quick background check. Ask yourself: is this person actually living what they are preaching?
Because today, Gehgeh is on camera begging for forgiveness. Tomorrow, it could be another coach, another viral video, another set of people whose lives have been quietly disrupted.
