A TikTok and business expert, Godwin Daramola, has explained how his monthly remuneration increased from N1 million to N5 million on TikTok.

He made this known to encourage the youths on how to effectively use their mobile phones productively.

This call came amid the economic issues facing Nigerians, which the youths are grossly affected by.

Recall that criticisms have greeted many Nigerian youths as regards the way they use their phones for fun, while it can be used to better their lives.

Daramola, noted that it was important for the youths to stand up to Nigeria’s economic problems rather than continue to blame the government.

The TikTok expert recounted his experience: “I established my TikTok presence in 2021, focusing on showcasing my services and testimonials. By 2022, I began generating significant income, earning ₦1 million monthly.

“In 2023, my earnings increased to an average of ₦5 million weekly. Currently, I earn ₦1 million per 15 minutes.”

Also, Daramola hinged his success on spiritual growth.

He stressed his father’s mentorship as a pastor influenced him.

The TikTok expert noted, “I was brought up a Christian and I was a committed Christian. Every morning was devotion which was compulsory for all family member and guests visiting to attend.

“I was always attending Sunday schools for kids and when I was in high school, I became more serious around my SS1, working signs and wonders and giving accurate prophecy, and praying for the sick.”

While, recounting his miraculous days, he noted, “In 2014 my neighbour’s visitor had just died and the guys rushed to my room to call me.

“I got there placed my hands on him and he came back to life. The news went viral in my area that the whole street started calling me pastor.

“By 2014 and 2015 I was receiving invites to churches to minister demonstrating my spiritual gifts. I was very active in fellowship in my university days.

“I was a committed church work from my 100 level, I became the bible coordinator by 300l and then became the Sub-Zonal secretary managing evangelical, secretarial and bible office at a time.

“In my university days, I would go for evangelism even before I became a coordinator, praying for the sick and prophesying. On other occasion I go with my friend, or my mentee for them to see practicality of what I had been teaching them on the subject of spirituality.

“Upon the discovery of my spiritual gift, in 2016 I started my own church called Believers Word Church.

“In that same year I was spiritually enlightened and I saw that one thing certain religion have is spirituality. And my knowledge broaden and I wanted to become the Nature Prophet. Not a Christian Prophet or Muslim Prophet, but Nature Prophet.

“But because my friends were all Christians I decided to stay in Christianity,” he explained.

Daramola expressed his respect for all religions. “I accommodate all as authoritative in its own right. But I stand outside of religion, culture or tradition.

“I am of the opinion that we as humans are energy, we are made up of energy. Every element in an atomic bomb can be found in you, same as the elements in the stars in the sky,” he noted.

Speaking on his educational qualifications, he noted that all his education degree have been in Nigeria before relocating to the United Kingdom.

He said: “I hold, LL.B degree from Adekunle Ajasin University (2017), LL.M degree in International Law from the University of Hull, England (2024) and I am currently pursuing Ph.D. in Law (UK)”
