Nigerian TikToker Peller, whose real name is Hamzat Habeeb, was hospitalized after crashing his newly acquired Mercedes-Benz on the Lekki-Epe Expressway in Lagos. The incident occurred during a live broadcast on Instagram, where Peller appeared visibly distressed and emotional, reportedly due to a breakup with his girlfriend, Jarvis.
During the livestream, Peller made alarming statements, including “I will use this car and have an accident right now” and “I’m scared, I’m scared. If you leave me, people will mock me… Thank you, I’m going to kill myself”. He eventually crashed into a stone barrier, causing significant damage to the vehicle.
Bystanders rushed to his aid, and he was taken to a hospital for medical attention. While reports confirm he received treatment, the extent of his injuries remains unclear. The incident has sparked widespread concern among fans and social media users, with many calling for greater attention to mental health challenges, particularly among content creators and influencers.
Peller’s relationship with Jarvis has been tumultuous, with previous public arguments and reconciliations. Leaked chats suggesting another breakup have fueled speculation that emotional distress from the relationship may have contributed to the incident.
