He said social media has a way of giving false hope and later dumping someone after the euphoria.
Gehgeh advised Alax, also referred to as Nawao, on the importance of focusing attention on building a tangible business.
In his TikTok video, he noted that since Alax was now well known, he should use the fame to build an eatery business.
Gehgeh said if Alax built a business, many people would be eager to patronise him.
He warned that if Alax focused more on the social media attention he was getting, there was the tendency that he would be forgotten.
