Please Forgive Me, I Will Never Do That Again – TikToker, Peller Apologizes To Nigerians (Video)

Popular TikTok personality Peller has spoken out for the first time following his arrest and detention by the Lagos State Police Command over an incident involving dangerous driving and an alleged suicide attempt.

In a video circulated on social media, the content creator expressed remorse over his actions and appealed to the public for forgiveness, saying, “I am sorry, Nigerians.

Please, I’m sorry. I will never do that again. I’m very sorry, please. For now, I am on medication. Once I am done with my medication, I will be online.”

The controversy is reportedly connected to Peller’s recent split from his girlfriend, Jarvis.

Jarvis had earlier confirmed the end of their relationship, explaining that Peller’s difficulty with emotional control played a major role in her decision to walk away.

Confirming the development, the Lagos State Police Command said Peller was arrested after his actions were deemed a deliberate attempt at self-harm and a serious threat to other road users.

Police accounts indicate that the incident happened on Sunday, December 14, 2025, when Peller was allegedly seen driving dangerously while livestreaming on social media, an act that reportedly resulted in a severe accident on the Lekki–Epe Expressway in Lagos.

Authorities further revealed that the matter has been handed over to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) for a thorough probe, noting that Peller will be arraigned in court upon the conclusion of investigations.

Reacting to the incident, the Commissioner of Police, Olohundare Jimoh, warned social media influencers and digital content creators against encouraging or showcasing reckless acts online, emphasizing that such behaviour will attract firm consequences.

BBNaija Star, Tacha Blasts Content Creator, Lawrence Alabi Over Arrest Of ‘Banger Boy’

Natacha Akinde, a former Big Brother Naija housemate and media personality who is popularly known as Tacha, has criticized content creator Lawrence Alabi for turning the arrest of an upcoming creator and social media troll, known on 𝕏 as “Small Ralph” (@Churlah), into online content.

Small Ralph is also called ‘Banger Boy’ online due to incessant trolling and social media attacks.

The controversy began after Lawrence Alabi arrested ‘Banger Boy’ over alleged cyberbullying and defamatory posts targeted at him and his wife.

While many netizens agreed that Alabi had the right to seek legal redress, the situation quickly escalated after videos of ‘Banger Boy’s’ arrest surfaced online, with some Nigerians stating that he was being humiliated.

Reacting to the situation, Tacha, in a post via 𝕏,  condemned the humiliation of ‘Banger Boy’, insisting that while the law should take its course, public shaming was unnecessary and dangerous.

According to the reality TV star, Nigerians often use power or influence to oppress others once they ‘make it’.

She said, “We are the biggest hypocrites to ever exist. We can all agree that the Nigerian dream is to make it well enough to oppress another Nigerian.

“You live in the uk you know with a billion pounds you can’t do this.

“Sue the boy; I don’t care. But what you won’t do is humiliate him.

“If anybody can get me the boy’s contact, send a DM or drop a comment. We will get him out, and the boy in question will still face the law. But what you won’t do is humiliate him.”

Nigerian Actress, Ini Edo Replies CAN Over ‘A Very Dirty Christmas’ Movie Controversy

Ini Edo, the Nollywood actress and film producer, has denied claims that her movie title, A Very Dirty Christmas, was meant to demean Christianity or disrespect the Christmas season.

Earlier, 626Blaze reported that the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) recently raised concerns about the title of Ini’s movie, calling it offensive to Christian beliefs.

The association said the title conflicts with the sacred meaning of Christmas, a season that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ and represents peace, love, and purity.

CAN stated that linking the holy season with the word “dirty” undermines its spiritual significance and turns a solemn religious celebration into something crude.

While acknowledging the importance of creative freedom in art and film, the association insisted that such freedom should be exercised responsibly, particularly in a religiously diverse country like Nigeria.

In response, Ini Edo, in a statement released on Thursday, explained that the film was created to spark reflection and conversation, not to cause offence.

She noted that all regulatory requirements were met before the film’s release, including approvals from the National Film and Video Censors Board (MFVCB) and the Nigerian Copyright Commission (NCC).

While describing herself as a devout Christian, Ini Edo stressed that neither she nor the production team intended to ridicule Christianity or the essence of Christmas.

According to the thespian, the film’s title was metaphorical and tied to the story, adding that she was surprised that objections were raised only after the film had been released and approved.

The statement reads, “Art, at its highest form, is meant to provoke thought, spark conversation, and reflect the complexities of human experience. It is in this spirit that A Very Dirty Christmas was created.

“Prior to the release of this film, all legal and regulatory requirements governing motion pictures in Nigeria were fully complied with, including securing the appropriate approval from the National Film and Video Censors Board (NFVCB), Nigerian Copyright Commission (NCC), amongst others.

“At no time was there any intention to demean, ridicule, or dishonour Christianity, the Christmas season, or the values held dear by millions of Nigerians.

“I am a devout Christian. My faith is deeply personal to me, and it guides my values, my choices, and my life. I would never knowingly create or associate myself with any work that seeks to misrepresent, disrespect, or undermine my religion or the essence of Christmas.

“The title of the film is metaphorical, reflecting the story being told and the realities explored within it. Christmas, while sacred, is also a season that often reveals the contrast between appearance and truth, joy and struggle, virtue and human imperfection.

“It is therefore surprising that reservations are only being expressed after the film has been released and duly approved by the appropriate regulatory authority.

“I acknowledge the concerns raised by the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and I respect the important role faith plays in our society.”

Nollywood Actress, Doris Ogala Slams Pastor Chris Okafor With A N1bn Lawsuit Over Unfulfilled Marriage Promise

Nollywood actress Doris Ogala has escalated her long-standing dispute with popular clergyman Pastor Chris Okafor to the courts, filing a ₦1 billion lawsuit over what she claims was an unfulfilled promise of marriage.

The actress instituted the suit at a high court, accusing the pastor of emotional distress, reputational damage, and breach of trust arising from their alleged relationship.

Doris has repeatedly claimed that she and Pastor Okafor were in a serious, long-term relationship and that she was led to believe marriage was imminent.

In previous public statements, Doris alleged that the relationship spanned several years, during which she said she made personal sacrifices, offered support, and remained loyal, only to be abandoned when the pastor allegedly chose to marry someone else.

She has consistently denied claims that her demands amount to blackmail, insisting instead that she is seeking justice for emotional and psychological harm suffered.

The ₦1 billion suit is said to include demands for damages, public apology, and legal recognition of the alleged wrongs committed against her.

While details of the court filings are yet to be fully made public, the development marks a significant escalation in the highly publicized dispute that has played out both online and in the media.

As of the time of filing this report, Pastor Chris Okafor has not issued an official response to the lawsuit. The case is expected to attract considerable public attention as it progresses, given the profiles of both parties and the sensitive nature of the allegations.

The court is yet to fix a date for hearing.
