Social media personality Ojaigho Prosper, widely known as GehGeh, has reacted strongly to the recent traditional marriage between TikToker Peller and his partner, Jarvis, questioning the decision and the emphasis placed on financial ability.
Peller had on Sunday confirmed that he officially paid Jarvis’ bride price during a family introduction ceremony, marking a key step in their traditional marriage rites. He shared clips from the event on Instagram, describing it as the moment he “proudly paid the bride price of the woman I love.”
However, the development quickly sparked reactions online, with GehGeh taking to X (formerly Twitter) to express concerns about the marriage, particularly the idea that financial stability alone justifies such a commitment.
He argued that marriage should go beyond financial capacity, stressing the importance of mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual preparedness before making a lifelong decision.
“Y’all are justifying his act with ‘he has the money allow him’. But y’all failed to ask yourself if he’s ready mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually,” he wrote.
GehGeh maintained that “everything isn’t all about money,” adding that deeper personal readiness should be considered in matters of marriage.
He also expressed disappointment that Peller went ahead with the union despite what he described as personal advice against the move. According to him, the TikTok star is still in a phase of growth and may have rushed into marriage prematurely.
“You still growing as a child why get married now eehn.. I tried my possible best to help you but you failed to listen to me.. Peller don go marry Jarvis.. upon all my advice,” he said, also criticising the response he received from the influencer.
GehGeh further challenged supporters of the marriage to reflect on whether they would give the same advice to a younger family member in a similar situation.
The traditional ceremony followed closely after Peller’s earlier proposal to Jarvis in Ghana, where she accepted his marriage proposal, setting the stage for their formal union.
