TikTok Creator Jarvis Confirms Breakup With Peller, Appeals Against Mockery
TikTok content creator, Elizabeth Amadou, popularly known as Jarvis, has confirmed that she has ended her relationship with fellow influencer and live streamer Hamzat Habeeb, known as Peller. She appealed to the public to stop mocking him following his recent car crash during a live broadcast.
Jarvis disclosed in a live video shared online on Tuesday amid widespread reactions to Peller’s hospitalization after the incident on the Lekki‑Epe Expressway in Lagos.
Addressing online commentary surrounding the crash and the couple’s relationship, Jarvis said public ridicule was exacerbating an already painful situation.
“It’s always people who will mock me. Because I can see concern about this online. People will mock him, stop mocking him. Stop shading him,” she said.
She stressed that the incident should not be used to define Peller’s character, insisting she never portrayed him as a bad person.
Acknowledging Peller’s emotional challenges, Jarvis described his struggle with emotional control as the core issue rather than malice.
“Yes, he cannot control his emotions. He cannot control. That’s the problem. I can control mine, but he can’t control his. We need to join hands together to help him,” she said.
Confirming that they are no longer together, Jarvis said the breakup was necessary and should not be misconstrued as abandonment.
“Peller is a sweet guy, I do not even want it to even end but it has happened, it has happened,” she said.
Jarvis emphasized that the focus should now be on supporting Peller’s wellbeing and healing.
“The relationship is not the thing now. It’s not saying let’s go back to who we were. The solution is let’s put our heads together to work on him. To be better. Not space of we not talking, it is space of this relationship thing. It is over for now,” she said.
She explained that the separation was intended to give space for healing and urged supporters and social media users to desist from harmful narratives.
“Stop your shading. How is it helping? It’s not helping. Don’t use it against him. Encourage him. Encourage us. Help us. Stop using our pain to mock us,” she added.
Expressing emotional distress, Jarvis said the online reactions had deepened the pain surrounding the situation.
Jarvis urged the public to be thankful that no life was lost in the crash and to prioritise wellbeing.
“All you people should be saying is thank God for life. Thank God for Peller. Thank God nothing happened to him.
“I love him, but for now we need to be okay. I’m not okay anymore. I want to be okay. He needs to be okay, he needs to be fine,” she said.
She concluded by noting that breakups do not always stem from hatred but sometimes from a need for clarity and calm.
Naija News had earlier reported that Peller sparked concern on Sunday after crashing his car during an Instagram livestream titled “RIP Peller” on the Lekki‑Epe Expressway.
In the footage, Peller was seen alone in his newly acquired Mercedes‑Benz, visibly distressed and crying during a phone conversation believed to be with Jarvis amid rumours of a breakup.
At several points during the broadcast, he appeared agitated and made alarming statements, including, “I will use this car and have an accident right now,” and later, “I’m scared. I’m scared.”
In a particularly worrying moment, he said, “If you break up with me, people will be mocking me… Thank you, I’m going to kill myself.”
Moments later, the vehicle was seen veering off the road before crashing into a stone barrier.
Subsequent videos circulating online showed Peller being assisted by bystanders before he was taken to a hospital.

Big Brother Naija ‘Show Ya Sef’ housemate, Victor Ikpe, popularly known as Keivo, has been disqualified from the reality television show after getting into a physical fight with fellow housemate, Tram.
Naija News reports that the disqualification was announced by Big Brother on Tuesday after the housemates were called to the lounge to watch footage of the incident.
The clips showed the confrontation between Keivo and Tram, after which Big Brother informed the housemates that Keivo had been removed from the competition.
Big Brother identified Keivo as the person who initiated the physical attack and ruled that he could no longer continue in the reality show.
He said: “Keivo, as the perpetrator, has been removed from the house. He is therefore disqualified from the house. Violence is never an option.”
The announcement came shortly after Keivo’s name disappeared from the official voting platform.
The incident happened on Monday during the final week of the show after Tram accused Keivo of taking a black shirt that belonged to him.
Keivo denied taking Tram’s shirt, explaining that he had a similar shirt and objected to being accused of stealing.
The disagreement later became heated before Keivo punched Tram.
Other housemates moved in to stop the fight, but the situation had already attracted Big Brother’s attention.
Big Brother then instructed the housemates to remain still while three ninjas entered the house and took Keivo out through the storeroom.
Before leaving, Keivo became emotional while discussing the incident.
He explained that his reaction was linked to the accusation against him and not only the disagreement over the shirt.
Keivo also expressed concern that his actions could cause viewers to see him as a thief.
He told Big Brother that he did not want the incident to become the main thing people remembered about him from his time on the show.
The disqualification comes just days before the grand finale, which is scheduled to hold on October 4.
The eventual winner of the season is expected to take home a ₦160 million grand prize.
Nigerian singer Adekunle Gold has spoken about his experience with the rising cost of goods and services in Nigeria.Naija News reports that the father of two said he does not directly feel the impact of inflation in his daily life. BreakingNews Alerts
The singer made this known while speaking on the 90s Baby Podcast, where he explained that he often learns about price increases from his staff rather than through personal shopping.
Adekunle Gold said he does not usually visit supermarkets or personally handle the purchase of household food items, making it difficult for him to immediately notice changes in prices.
He explained that he would only become aware of an increase when his staff members bring it to his attention, using the rising price of sardines as an example.
“I don’t feel the inflation going on in the country directly. Until my staff tell me sardines have increased in the market, I’ll be like, ‘Really?’ I wouldn’t know because I don’t go to the supermarket. Or when we buy foodstuff, it’s more often than usual,” he said.
Daily Voice reports Nigeria’s headline inflation rate dropped slightly to 15.39 per cent in August 2026, showing a 0.04 percentage point decline from the 15.43 per cent recorded in July.
The latest figure was contained in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) report released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS).
According to the NBS, the August inflation rate was also significantly lower than the 23.14 per cent recorded in August 2025.
The statistics agency said the month-on-month inflation rate also slowed in August, falling to 0.71 per cent from 1.57 per cent in July.
