After Suicide Attempts Over Alleged Breakup With Girlfriend
Elizabeth Amadou, Peller’s Romantic Bid For Charles Okocha’s Daughter Suffers Rebuke
OpenLife Nigeria reports that in the ever-dramatic landscape of Nigerian celebrity culture, where social media lives can spark feuds overnight, Nollywood veteran Charles Okocha has drawn a firm line in the sand.
The actor, famed for his larger-than-life persona, unleashed a passionate rebuke against rising TikTok streamer Peller after the young comedian brazenly voiced his desire to date Okocha’s teenage daughter.
The exchange, captured in viral clips, has ignited heated debates online about parental boundaries, celebrity bravado, and the blurred lines between genuine affection and content creation.
As Peller navigates the fallout from his recent heartbreak, this new pursuit adds another layer to his whirlwind personal narrative, leaving fans wondering if love or likes are the real endgame.
BIOGRAPHY OF PELLER
Habeeb Hamzat Adelaja, the charismatic force behind the moniker Peller, has skyrocketed from humble beginnings to digital dominance. Born on May 10, 2005, in the vibrant community of Ikorodu, Lagos State, Peller grew up in a Yoruba Muslim household as one of several siblings.
His early years were marked by financial challenges, leading him to forego tertiary education after completing his secondary studies at Providence Primary School and Frontrunner Academy.
Initially working as a carpenter to make ends meet, Peller discovered his true calling in content creation around 2023, drawing inspiration from international streaming giants like Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed.
Peller’s content style blending sharp sarcasm, Pidgin English flair, and Yoruba wit—quickly captivated audiences. His breakout series, “Peller’s Shenanigans,” propelled him to fame, earning him accolades such as Best Content Creator at the 2024 Trace Awards and TikTok Influencer of the Year at the Pulse Awards.
By 2026, at just 20 years old, he had shattered records with Africa’s most-watched live stream, peaking at over 260,000 viewers during a star-studded session featuring Olamide.
With a net worth estimated between ₦1-1.5 billion from endorsements, collaborations, and platform earnings, Peller represents the epitome of Gen-Z hustle—ambitious, entertaining, and always one viral moment away from the next big thing.
HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH JARVIS AND HOW IT ENDED
Peller’s romance with TikTok sensation Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, aka Jarvis, was once the envy of Nigeria’s online community. The pair, affectionately nicknamed “Pelvis” by fans, connected through their mutual passion for creative skits and challenges.
Their relationship blossomed publicly in 2025, filled with collaborative videos, lavish gestures, and declarations of love that amassed millions of views.
Jarvis, known for her infectious energy and dance prowess, often described Peller as her “rock,” bringing a sense of stability to his chaotic streaming world.
The fairy tale unraveled in late 2025, culminating in a public split announced during emotional live sessions in early January 2026. Jarvis took the lead, explaining that the relationship was “on pause” to allow Peller time for self-improvement.
She emphasized mutual respect, stating they remained “cool” without harboring grudges. Peller, heartbroken, shared raw moments of vulnerability, including apologies to Jarvis and her family. The final nail came when he unfollowed her on social platforms, signaling a definitive end.
Post-breakup, however, they’ve collaborated on shoots, including a Valentine’s Day proposal for a ₦10 million Tanzania trip, blurring the lines between exes and colleagues.
THE CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING THE BREAKUP
The dissolution of Peller and Jarvis’s union wasn’t just a private affair—it exploded into a public spectacle riddled with accusations and speculation. Shortly after the split, Peller’s distress manifested dramatically in a December 2025 car accident on the Lekki-Epe Expressway, broadcast live to thousands.
Hospitalized and emotional, he lamented the pain, vowing to swear off relationships, particularly with Nigerian women, and even hinting at self-harm in tearful streams. Jarvis denied rumors of cheating, insisting her commitment was unwavering, while insiders whispered about Peller’s alleged immaturity and jealousy as contributing factors.
The real firestorm? Allegations of orchestrated drama for engagement. Critics labeled it “clout-chasing 101,” pointing to their continued joint content—like photo shoots and live games—as evidence the breakup was scripted.
Jarvis’s teary confessions about feeling judged, coupled with Peller’s public pleas, divided fans: some empathized with the raw emotion, others decried it as manipulative. Even Ghanaian star Shatta Wale weighed in during a live with Jarvis, offering advice on resilience amid the backlash. The saga fueled endless debates on whether their tears were genuine or just another ploy to boost subscribers and views in the cutthroat world of TikTok fame.
PELLER’S NEXT RELATIONSHIP MOVE WITH CHARLES OKOCHA’S PHENOMENAL DAUGHTER
Barely recovering from his Jarvis chapter, Peller made headlines again by setting his sights on Mercy Okocha, the 18-year-old daughter of Nollywood heavyweight Charles Okocha.
In a candid live clip, Peller gushed over her, mistakenly pegging her age at 20 before being corrected, and affectionately dubbing her “Charles’s phenomenal daughter”—a playful echo of her father’s loving term for her. He boldly declared his intent to take her on a date, praising her poise and beauty, and even floated ideas of a serious future, including marriage.
This rebound announcement came amid Peller’s self-imposed “no dating” vow for 2026, raising eyebrows. Mercy, an emerging influencer in her own right, has shared her struggles with suitors intimidated by her father’s fame. Yet, Peller’s undeterred approach complete with claims of preliminary approval from Charles—has turned the spotlight on her.
Viral responses suggest Mercy might reciprocate, with comments indicating she finds him appealing, though the dynamic remains tentative and heavily scrutinized.
BIOGRAPHY OF CHARLES OKOCHA
Charles Okocha, the enigmatic “Igwe 2Pac,” has been a staple in Nigerian entertainment for over two decades. Born on July 5, 1976, in Anambra State to an Igbo family from Okpanam in Delta State, Charles’s early life shifted when his parents moved to Surulere, Lagos.
His father, Paul Okolie Nwayalani, a respected journalist and community figure, instilled values of perseverance.
Charles debuted in the industry in 2001 with a music video appearance, but his acting career took off with roles in films like “Sharon Stone,” where his “bad boy” vibe and American-inspired swagger earned him the 2Pac moniker.Beyond the screen, Charles is a rapper, comedian, and entrepreneur.
He survived a harrowing 2015 shooting incident, taking six bullets but emerging triumphant, winning the 2019 Vskit Voice Competition. His filmography includes hits like “Knock Out,” “Seized,” and “Sin.” At 49, he’s a family man: married to Mimi Okocha since 2024, with three children, including his fiercely protected daughter Mercy.
Charles’s life story is one of resilience, blending Nollywood grit with viral humor, making him a beloved icon who doesn’t shy from defending his loved ones.
CHARLES OKOCHA’S REACTION TO PELLER’S PUBLIC INTENTION
Charles Okocha didn’t mince words when Peller’s intentions surfaced. In a series of fiery viral videos, the actor, surrounded by his signature hype crew, expressed outrage and protectiveness. “After doing all that with Jarvis, you think you wanna jar my daughter?” he quipped, questioning Peller’s audacity.
He challenged, “What gives you the confidence to think you could associate with my child?” and warned of a “firm response” to any advances, emphasizing he “doesn’t joke” about his family.
The reaction blended humor with sternness Charles jokingly ordered his team to “get that boy” and insisted he’d chaperone any potential date.
This theatrical display, true to his Igwe 2Pac style, resonated with fans praising his fatherly vigilance. Mercy herself noted the intimidation factor, but Charles’s stance underscores his commitment to shielding her from the spotlight’s pitfalls, turning the incident into a broader conversation on celebrity family privacy.
As Peller’s romantic escapades evolve from Jarvis’s emotional wreckage to courting Charles Okocha’s “phenomenal daughter” under her father’s watchful eye, one can’t ignore the scripted feel of it all.

Will Peller win Mercy’s heart, or will Charles’s warnings prevail? Only the next live stream will tell—stay tuned for the sequel in this unending Nollywood-meets-TikTok saga.
