Popular Nigerian content creator and social media influencer, Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, has been hospitalized.
Naijaonpoint reports the social media influencer was hospitalised following an accident on Sunday involving his newly-acquired Mercedes-Benz.
The accident occurred along the Lekki-Epe Expressway in Lagos during an Instagram live session.
A visibly emotional Peller was seen lamenting relationship-related issues and threatening to kill himself shortly before the car crash.
The content creator, who was on a livestream, repeatedly expressed concerns about his relationship ending, and threatened to harm himself.
“I will use this car and have an accident right now,” he said during the livestream, and later added, “I’m scared. I’m scared. If you break up with me, people will be mocking me, they will be mocking me, they will be mocking me, they will be, they will be mocking me, they will not… Thank you, I’m going to kill myself.”
Moments later, footage showed Peller veering off the road and colliding with a barrier, causing significant damage to the luxury vehicle. Bystanders quickly assisted him at the scene, and he was rushed to a hospital.
Details of his medical condition are unclear at the time of filing this report.
While it remains unclear if Peller was referring to his relationship with Jarvis, both social media personalities have had a turbulent relationship, including previous episodes of public arguments and disagreements.
