“I’ll Give My Best, Not My All” — GehGeh Fires Back at Sister Over Neglect Claims
Nigerian content creator Emmanuel Obruste, popularly known as GehGeh, has responded to allegations made by his younger sister accusing him of neglecting his family despite his financial success.
The controversy emerged after the sister publicly claimed she was denied access to GehGeh’s housewarming ceremony, sparking widespread criticism of the influencer across social media platforms.
In a video posted on Instagram, GehGeh addressed the backlash, stating that he does not yet possess the financial capacity to lift his entire family out of poverty. He emphasized that while he remains supportive, there are limits to what he can provide.
According to him, he has assisted his family in the past, citing examples such as purchasing the phone his sister currently uses. He also highlighted his personal responsibilities, noting that he currently caters to three children and must make financially strategic decisions to secure his future.
GehGeh further described himself as disciplined and cautious with money, attributing his financial progress to that mindset. He argued that prioritising emotion over financial planning could leave him vulnerable in the long run.
Referencing the career trajectory of singer Asake, GehGeh pointed out that even after years of international success, the artist only recently bought cars for his parents. He used this example to question the expectation that he should immediately transform the financial status of his entire family.
The influencer also stressed that he is the first person in his family to achieve significant financial milestones, including building a duplex and owning cars. He expressed frustration over what he described as unrealistic expectations placed on him.
Advising his siblings, GehGeh urged them to seek employment and become financially independent rather than relying solely on him for support.
“I will give my best, not my all,” he stated, reiterating his stance on balancing family responsibility with personal financial sustainability.
