Nigerian streamer Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, and his fiancée Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, also known as Jarvis, recently visited fashion designer Seyi Vodi at his office. The meeting, which was captured on video and shared online, comes as the couple prepares for their wedding later this year. During the visit, Vodi offered Peller advice on the importance of education, sparking widespread reactions on social media.
Vodi’s Advice: Education as a Confidence Booster
According to Vodi, returning to school would benefit Peller by enhancing his confidence. “He has to go back to school; let nobody tell you otherwise. It will give you confidence as a graduate. School can't stop you from streaming,” Vodi said. He emphasized that pursuing education would not interfere with Peller’s career as a streamer, urging him to prioritize learning.
Peller’s Response and Course Choice
Reacting to the advice, Peller initially joked about studying Basic Science, drawing laughter from those present. He then became serious and revealed his intention to study Law, adding that going back to school would not stop him from streaming. This exchange highlights the ongoing debate about education among young content creators in Nigeria.
Wedding Preparations and Aso Ebi Distribution
As part of their wedding preparations, Peller and Jarvis have begun distributing aso ebi to celebrities and friends. The couple’s visit to Seyi Vodi was part of this process. A few weeks ago, Peller proposed to Jarvis with an engagement ring displayed on a billboard, a gesture that garnered significant attention online.
Reactions from Social Media Users
The video of Vodi’s advice drew numerous comments. User @ms_lope wrote: “This is the best and most honest fatherly advice to give him. I hope he goes back to school.” @juliusrebeccaolamide suggested: “He should study Mass Communication, it really aligns with his personality.” @charley_sidi criticized Jarvis’s greeting posture, while @dr_pharouk praised Vodi: “This is so amazing, thank you for encouraging him sir.” @pregnancy.baddie commented: “I love that encouragement. Thank you Father. The King with so much wisdom has spoken.” @jewelopedia said: “His greeting melted my heart.” @giilo37 added: “Good one Egbon Vodi. Let the young ones know the value of education, there are so many things money cannot buy.”
Context: Ycee Controversy and Previous Incident
The advice comes days after singer Ycee criticized Peller during an interview, describing an “olodo uprising” and using Peller as an example of society’s declining value for education. Peller responded angrily, calling Ycee names and dismissing his music as “noise.” Additionally, Jarvis recently stirred speculation after a slip of the tongue during a livestream, where she mistakenly mentioned having another baby, leading fans to question whether she inadvertently revealed private details about her life.
