Apostle Johnson Suleman has ignited a fresh debate after declaring that popular financial advisor Emmanuel Obruste, known as Geh Geh, offers advice that is only suitable for poor people. Speaking during a recent church service, the cleric said he enjoys Geh Geh's content but believes it resonates primarily with those still striving for financial stability.
Suleman's Commentary on Geh Geh's Teachings
The senior pastor told his congregation that while he has watched several of Geh Geh's clips on X (formerly Twitter) and finds them engaging, the advice is not one-size-fits-all. He argued that a person's level of success determines what financial guidance is useful to them.
According to Suleman, someone still building financial stability would benefit greatly from Geh Geh's emphasis on budgeting and discipline. However, for those already established, the focus shifts to different concerns—like purchasing cars rather than worrying about transport fare.
"I've seen his videos. That guy gives good advice, but for poor people. There's a level you get to, somebody might be telling you, 'If somebody asks for transport, no give them.' No, you don't give transport. You buy cars. I like him, but I've seen some of his clips on X because I sometimes scrolled through X, and I laugh. He's just an exciting young man. I just love when he's sharing something. I say, 'This is good for those who are coming up.' If you're coming up, you want to have a balance in life. You should listen to him. His things are good. But if you have already standing, God has blessed you. No, you can't resonate with God because you're not thinking of transport fare. You're thinking of car."
Social Media Reactions Flood In
The clip quickly went viral, drawing a wide range of responses from netizens. Many users shared their opinions on Suleman's take, with some defending Geh Geh's advice and others agreeing with the cleric.
User @utonwa__linda__ praised Geh Geh, saying: "I can't be the only girl that likes him ??? the dude is wise! Listen to the part where he talks about life! You will see how smart he is.. everything no be for relationship ??... deep down he just wants everyone to be successful! Both the women and men.. Ghe Ghe is wise"
@liveshotmagic countered: "Even If you buy her a car., she go still use the car go meet another guy., so ghe ghe advice is still valid ???"
@BrokehommieDee commented: "See poor people celebrating cos a rich man said rich people should by cars for poor people just cos they can. Poor people no longer require to work to buy a car. Just find a rich person to buy for u."
@Jimmyforchrist asked: "Sir, it's beyond transport ooo Okay what of all the rich people that are now crying because of woman??"
@tochi_og added: "Imagine buying a car for someone who can't afford transportation. If the foundation is faulty, what can the righteous do?"
Suleman's Broader Context
This is not the first time Apostle Suleman has weighed in on public figures. Earlier, Legit.ng reported that he defended Pastor Enoch Adeboye over his participation in a nationwide prayer walk during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan. Suleman clarified that the 84-year-old RCCG leader was obeying a religious directive from the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, not staging a political protest.
The cleric also described the current administration as the worst he has ever witnessed, lamenting that Nigerians now worry about their lives instead of just food.
