Peller Receives ₦17 Million Cash Gift from Temple in Lieu of 10 Cows
Peller Gets ₦17M Instead of 10 Cows from Temple

Nigerian streamer Habeeb Hamzat, known as Peller, has finally received the promised wedding gift from billionaire Temple — but in cash rather than the originally pledged 10 cows. According to Delta State government official Ossai Ovie Success, Temple transferred ₦17 million to Peller as the monetary equivalent of the livestock, ending weeks of public speculation.

Temple Fulfills Promise with Cash Gift

Ossai, who served as an intermediary, announced the fulfillment on social media after days of trying to reach Peller. He stated that Temple opted to send the cash directly to the groom rather than deliver cows physically for the August 1st wedding celebration. “I am glad to announce that Temple has fulfilled his promise,” Ossai wrote, adding that a Deltan's word carries the weight of a contract. “Once we promise, go home and sleep.”

The politician expressed disappointment at skeptics who doubted the pledge would be honored, reaffirming his reputation as a “promise keeper.” The original promise of 10 cows had gone viral after Peller publicly called out Temple for not fulfilling it, sparking a heated debate on social media.

When you have your audience, people tend to do things for you for the sake of it.” Others questioned the timing, with @trullydearest noting the contrast between a wealthy influencer receiving millions and struggling families unable to afford rent.

Peller and Jarvis Stage Court Wedding

The gift comes just as Peller and his partner Jarvis officially began their married life. Legit.ng previously reported that the couple tied the knot in a court wedding ceremony on Wednesday, July 29, 2026. They arrived in matching white outfits, with Jarvis drawing attention in a white gown adorned with floral accents. Photos and videos from the ceremony circulated widely on social media, generating mixed reactions — many congratulated the newlyweds while others expressed curiosity about their next steps.

The ₦17 million gift, equivalent to about 10 cows at current market rates, has been used by the couple as a boost to start their marriage. Ossai's announcement confirmed that Temple had made good on his word, turning a social media drama into a resolution that satisfied both parties.
