Although Bobrisky has other business ventures, it is widely recognized that he uses his social media platforms to make a lot of money. The internet star gained public attention as the first Nigerian who has come out boldly as transgender regardless of the fact that Nigeria as a country has no LGBT rights. Even though we know that millions of social media following do not translate to money in the bank, the advent of social media has in no doubt made so many people become rich and popular.

Very few people have mastered the art of monetizing controversy and criticisms just like Bobrisky does.

With his rapidly growing visibility on Instagram, companies, as well as individuals, continually approach him, seeking their brands’ exposure.
