TikToker Peller, whose real name is Habeeb Hamzat, was involved in a car crash on Sunday, December 14, 2025, while live-streaming on Instagram. The incident occurred on the Lekki-Epe Expressway in Lagos, Nigeria, and was reportedly triggered by an emotional breakup with his girlfriend, Jarvis.
In the live stream, Peller was seen crying and making alarming statements, including “I will use this car and have an accident right now” and “I’m scared, I’m scared. If you break up with me, people will be mocking me… Thank you, I’m going to kill myself”. Moments later, he crashed his newly acquired Mercedes-Benz into a barrier, causing significant damage to the vehicle.
Peller was rushed to the hospital by bystanders, and his condition is currently unclear. Jarvis has broken her silence, stating that she had tried her best and asking why people were blaming her for the accident. She also questioned her fans, asking what they expected her to do, while telling them that they already knew the truth.
