TikTok streamer, Peller
By DEBORAH ENWEREM
Popular Nigerian TikTok streamer, Hamzat Adelaja, popularly known as Peller, has announced an upcoming livestream with the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi.
He disclosed this in a TikTok livestream, saying Obi’s team had reached out to him.
Peller, however, clarified that the planned session was purely for content and platform engagement, and not a political endorsement of Obi’s 2027 presidential ambition.
According to Peller, he would only be livestreaming with the former Anambra governor and not endorsing his presidential ambition.
He said he was not supporting any presidential candidate or asking Nigerians to vote for Obi, adding that the proposed session would be limited to a question-and-answer interaction with Obi.
“Peter Obi’s people want to stream with me on TikTok. They want to do a stream with me on TikTok.
“Guys, listen, because una dey quick to judge person. I no tell una make una vote anybody. Me, I no be president supporter.
“Me, I just wan stream with them on my livestream on TikTok, question and answer.
“Make una give me questions to ask them and I go ask them. E no concern me,” he said.
Peller said his followers would submit questions for the proposed livestream, which he would ask during the session.
He explained that the questions would come from his followers and that he would not use the platform to raise personal issues. (NAN)
