Geh Geh criticizes Wizkid over failure to support Carter Efe, despite singing Machala to honour him
Popular financial commentator and influencer Geh Geh has taken a swipe at Afrobeats star Wizkid, accusing him of failing to support comedian and streamer Carter Efe despite the success of the hit fan song Machala.
Speaking in a viral video following Carter Efe’s record-breaking Twitch livestream featuring Davido, Geh Geh argued that the moment showed the importance of established artists uplifting emerging talents.

According to him, when someone refuses to help despite having the capacity to do so, another person will ultimately step in to fill that role.
Carter Efe’s Machala song
Geh Geh maintained that Machala remains one of the most impactful fan-made songs in Afrobeats history, stressing that it was created to celebrate and honour Wizkid. He expressed disappointment that, despite the song’s popularity, Wizkid did not publicly show support or acknowledge Carter Efe.

Geh Geh opines why Wizkid failed to help
The influencer dismissed claims that Wizkid’s silence should be interpreted as humility or personal choice, instead describing it as an unwillingness to share influence and platform.
He added that public figures who have benefited from opportunities in the past have a responsibility to extend similar support to others.
Drawing comparisons, Geh Geh referenced how Banky W supported Wizkid early in his career, suggesting that such backing played a significant role in Wizkid’s rise to fame.
His words …
“My advice to Wizkid: if there is one thing wey I learn from this Carter Efe livestream wey Davido go be say if God wan use you as vessel to help person, and you refuse, him must surely use another person to carry out him mission.
Carter Efe dropped one of the biggest fan song in Afrobeats. No fan song in the history of Afrobeats reach Machala.
This boy drop that song to honour Wizkid, to glorify am, and till today, Wizkid no show that guy love.
Una dey call am pride, that thing no be pride. Na greed. Him no wan share him platform with anybody. Him no wan share him glory with anybody.
Many of Una go say e no owe Carter Efe anything, but him owe am something. To whom much is given, much is expected.
Banky W share him platform with Wizkid, na why we know Wizkid today.”
