Popular content creator and AI personality Jarvis has come to the defense of her partner, Peller, following criticism from rapper Ycee, who recently described the growing popularity of some content creators as an “olodo uprising.”
Reacting in a video, Jarvis argued that many young Nigerians involved in content creation are educated individuals who are struggling to find jobs despite earning university degrees.
“Me that went to school, I graduated, and government no give us work now, what do you expect us to do? What do you expect us to do, sir?Go and tell that to your president.”
She questioned the expectation that graduates should remain unemployed after spending years acquiring education and skills.
“You cannot expect us to have IQ and high knowledge, and at the end of the day, with all the knowledge and everything, we’ll end up cleaning toilets.”
Jarvis stressed that many young people are simply trying to survive through legitimate means rather than turning to crime.
The content creator also pushed back against claims that content creators do not value education, using herself as an example.
“You are telling us that we don’t want to have education? Okay, me that graduated, me that went to school. Yes, hello, I went to school. Graduate. And how is it now?”
She further criticized political leaders and questioned why content creators are being targeted instead of addressing unemployment and economic hardship.
She further suggested that attention should be directed toward tackling unemployment and creating opportunities for young people rather than mocking those who have turned to content creation as a source of livelihood.
