Peller loses massive followers after criticizing 30-day rant challenge

Popular TikTok influencer Habeeb Hamzat, widely known as Peller, has faced a massive drop in his follower count on both TikTok and Instagram following his controversial remarks about the trending 30-day rant challenge.

In a widely circulated video, Peller criticized Nigerians participating in the challenge, cautioning that such activities could prompt the government to ban TikTok in Nigeria.

The influencer, famous for his live TikTok sessions, advised participants to voice their frustrations on Instagram or in public spaces like markets instead of using TikTok.

“If you really want to rant, go to Instagram or the market; don’t do it on TikTok. If TikTok gets banned, that will be a major problem,” he stated in the viral clip.

Following his statement, Peller suffered a significant loss of followers on TikTok and Instagram amounting to over hundred of thousands, signaling strong backlash from his audience.

He also faced severe backlashes across social media platforms from critics who ridiculed him for trying to divide the voice of the youths against bad governance.
