Nigerian TikTok sensation Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, has addressed the massive backlash he faced over his remarks on the viral ‘30 Days Rant Challenge’.
What Happened?
- Peller advised Nigerians against using TikTok for the challenge, warning that it could lead to a government ban on the platform.
- He suggested Instagram or physical protests as safer alternatives for expressing grievances.
- His comments sparked outrage, leading to a dramatic drop in his follower count:
500K lost on TikTok
400K lost on Instagram
Speaking to TVC, Peller clarified his stance, insisting he was only concerned about potential consequences and had no influence over government decisions.
“I’m just an ordinary citizen, not a governor or president,” he emphasized.
Despite the backlash, he urged Nigerians to stay focused on real national issues instead of directing their frustration at him.
