    An automatic gele known as “Auto gele” is now available in Nigeria.

    Created in 2014 by Ande Oluwatoyosi and Fasasi Folusho, two graduates of Covenant University, auto gele is the newest and easiest way to tie a nice Owambe gele.

    The gele was created simply to ease the stress and expenses involved in tying gele. The design is automated and very comfortable for the wearer.

    They come in different colours and can also be made bespoke, for those that want theirs really special.
