In a deeply concerning incident captured on a live digital broadcast, popular content creator Peller was hospitalized after intentionally crashing his vehicle into a barrier on the Lekki-Epe Expressway.
The broadcast, which he had unsettlingly titled “RIP Peller,” showed the influencer in a state of extreme emotional distress, weeping and expressing a fear of public ridicule if his relationship were to end.
Moments after making several alarming statements about self-harm, he drove his Mercedes-Benz off the road, resulting in a severe collision that required immediate intervention from bystanders and medical personnel.
In the wake of the crash, his partner, Jarvis, confirmed through her own emotional video that the couple has officially separated.
While describing the breakup as a necessary step for her own well-being and clarity, she defended Peller against the wave of mockery surfacing online, characterizing him as a person who struggles with emotional regulation rather than someone acting out of malice.
She urged their followers to prioritize his recovery and mental health over gossip, emphasizing that the situation should be met with compassion rather than ridicule.
Meanwhile, law enforcement and road safety authorities have initiated investigations into the incident, citing concerns over reckless driving and the dangerous use of social media while behind the wheel.
