Peller

On April 1, 2025, Nigerian online streamer and content creator Habeeb Hamzat, better known as Peller, once again proved why he’s a force to be reckoned with in the digital space. A video recording from his TikTok livestream, shared by user @ronaldmarley0 on X, showcases Peller engaging with his audience alongside other participants. This drew a total number of 130,000 viewers into his orbit during his livestream. The post, which has since garnered attention, highlights Peller’s meteoric rise and the cultural pride he inspires. The caption dubs him the “definition of Glory which western Nigerians calls Ogo.”

Peller, born on May 10, 2005, has become a household name in Nigeria’s online streaming community since emerging in 2023. He is known for his sarcastic humor and relatable reluctance while streaming. He has shattered records across Africa. Currently, Peller holds the continent’s highest-viewed TikTok stream with 76,000 views. This record surpassed his earlier 60,000-view milestone featuring Nigerian artist Olamide. His influence only grew when he co-hosted a livestream with music sensation Davido in October 2024. They were alongside creators Jarvis and Jo Blaq, attracting a staggering 389,800 viewers.

The X post captures a lively moment from Peller’s TikTok session. Comments like “Skibidi” and “Seyi D G sent Rose” reflect the interactive nature of TikTok’s platform. “Rose,” a popular virtual gift on TikTok, costs 60 in-app coins. It is a way for fans to show appreciation during livestreams. These small gestures, as noted by Sportskeeda, allow viewers to support creators without breaking the bank. This fosters a vibrant community around personalities like Peller.

The term “ogo,” meaning “Glory” in Yoruba, resonates deeply in this context. As the Nigerian Dictionary explains, it’s a word that encapsulates success and honor—qualities Peller embodies as he continues to break barriers. Inspired by global streamers like Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed, Peller’s journey reflects his relentless drive. His journey includes his 2024 comedy series Peller’s Palava with TikToker Jadrolita. Despite challenges like network issues, as he noted in a reply to the X post, Peller’s ability to connect with fans remains unshaken. This cements his status as a true Nigerian “OGO.”
