A recent viral video featuring popular Nigerian content creator Habeeb Hamzat, widely known as Peller, has ignited a firestorm of criticism online. The clip captures a heated confrontation at an eatery where Peller is seen exchanging harsh words and raining curses on a woman who allegedly complained about his volume.
What Sparked the Eatery Clash?
The incident, which occurred on January 6, 2026, began when the lady accused Peller of being excessively loud in the public space. According to Peller's own account, he was merely inquiring about the menu when the criticism came. The streamer expressed surprise, stating he was used to seeing such critics only in movies and never thought such encounters happened in real life. His reaction, however, quickly escalated beyond surprise.
Peller's Explosive Reaction and Fan Backlash
In the now-controversial video, Peller did not hold back. He was heard directing a torrent of insults and curses not only at the woman but also at her father. At one point, he lamented that he needed to return to school so people would stop insulting him. This remark particularly struck a chord with his audience, as many recalled his past promises to further his education.
The calm demeanor of the lady, who stood silently watching his tirade, contrasted sharply with Peller's outburst. This contrast was not lost on social media users, who swiftly took to platforms like Instagram to express their disappointment and anger.
How Fans and Followers Reacted
The online community largely sided with the unnamed woman, condemning Peller's behavior as uncultured and disrespectful. Many pointed out that her complaint about public noise was valid. Comments flooded in, dragging the streamer for his "anyhow behavior" and lack of public decorum. Some fans expressed sheer disappointment, while others mockingly advised him to follow through on his stated plan to go back to school.
This incident comes on the heels of other public dramas involving Peller, including a recent spat with his ex-lover, Jarvis, over the nature of a ring he gave her. That previous episode had also drawn mixed reactions from his fanbase, with many warning him about his approach to relationships.
The eatery clash has undoubtedly tarnished the streamer's image, presenting him in a light that many of his supporters find difficult to defend. It serves as a stark reminder of the intense scrutiny public figures face, where moments of lost temper can quickly spiral into widespread public relations crises.
