Adding to the drama, members of his own family said publicly that they had not been invited to the supposed ceremony.

Geh Geh speaks on the controversy

Geh Geh initially pushed back against the criticism, arguing that he had never directly told people to avoid marriage.

He did not, however, address whether the event itself was genuine until he appeared on the BTC Podcast, which aired on YouTube on July 29, 2026.

During the interview, the content creator confirmed the entire setup was intentional, designed both as a promotion and a social experiment.

"We organised everything as a normal promo. And so far, apart from the fact that we purposely did it, I still wanted to get the public's reactions," he said in pidgin English.

He also took the opportunity to clarify the principles behind what he calls his "Geh Geh University of Wisdom and Knowledge," noting that many people have misrepresented his teachings.

"Some people have a misunderstanding about my Geh Geh Wisdom and Knowledge University. When you see some people, the major thing they have been saying is that Geh Geh told them not to get married, but I got married," he said.

Geh Geh's actual stance on marriage

Rather than opposing marriage outright, Geh Geh explained that his position centres on advocating for polygamy over monogamy, which he believes protects men emotionally.

"I did not kick against marriage. I said do not marry, and even if you must marry, go for polygamy. This is because polygamy is the path that guides a man's heart from heartbreak," he said.

He went further, arguing that having multiple partners reduces the risk of emotional manipulation and is rooted in tradition

"Because when you are with different women, it will be hard for one woman to manipulate you. And this was what our forefathers practised. That is the core principle of my university," he added.
