Peller Makes Startling Confession: I Chase People With Knife Whenever I Smoke, Drink

Nigerian TikToker Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, has revealed why he deliberately avoids smoking, saying he believes the habit could cause him to lose control of his behaviour.

According to Bush Radio Academy, Peller made the revelation during a Tuesday night conversation with Nigerian rapper Ani Jeremiah, better known as Jeriq. During the discussion, Jeriq reportedly encouraged the TikToker to smoke, suggesting that it could help stimulate his creativity.

However, Peller explained that he prefers to stay away from smoking because of how he believes it could affect his behaviour. He recalled an incident in which he became highly aggressive after consuming cocktails and allegedly chased people with a knife.

The content creator said the experience prompted people close to him to strongly advise him against ever taking up smoking. According to Peller, those around him were already concerned that smoking could make him behave unpredictably and cause him to lose control.

Speaking about the incident, Peller said he had been warned that smoking could make him “go crazy,” adding that his previous reaction after drinking cocktails was enough to convince him to avoid the habit completely.

He said, “I no dey smoke, if I dey smoke, you no go fit be with me, I go kill you. They know say if I smoke I go crazy, right? Me wey drink, ehm, cocktail, I dey pursue people with knife, you know. I swear to God. Knife? Yes. So since then, they said I should never in my life smoke.”
