    TikToker Peller opens up on online criticism, misrepresentation at 20

    Popular TikTok creator, Peller, has shared his struggles with online negativity and misrepresentation at just 20 years old.

    In an Instagram post, he lamented how a 30-second clip from a nearly six-hour livestream was being circulated to paint him and his girlfriend, Jarvis, in a negative light, while their dedication and positive efforts were overlooked.

    Peller revealed the pressure of providing for himself and his family and described the emotional strain of facing constant criticism.

    Despite the challenges, he stressed his determination to remain resilient and rise above the hate.

    Peller wrote, “I streamed almost 6 hours, but a 30-second clip with good intentions is being pushed to paint me wrongly. This happens often, negative clips get picked while the hours of work and joy are ignored.

    “I’m just 20, still figuring life out, trying to provide for myself and my family. Sometimes it feels like people don’t care if I break down or even lose myself in the process.

    “I’ve never seen a 20-year-old dragged, put down, and torn apart like I am… but every single time, I rise again.” — Peller responds to critics.

    Peller’s outbursts came after a heated argument erupted between him and his girlfriend, Jarvis after attending Seyi Vibez’s concert in Lagos.

    The couple were leaving the Tafawa Balewa Square venue when the altercation began.

    Peller attempted to guide Jarvis into a vehicle, but she resisted, prompting him to physically pull her.

    He claimed he was trying to protect her from aggressive fans seeking money.

    The tension continued inside the car, with Peller and Jarvis exchanging angry words.

    Peller pushed her, saying she was preventing him from handling an issue, while Jarvis accused him of shouting excessively and prioritising his own well-being. 

  • I was told I might not conceive for five years after cancer diagnosis – Temitope Osoba

    I was told I might not conceive for five years after cancer diagnosis – Temitope Osoba

    Actress Temitope Osoba has shared a heart-wrenching aspect of her cancer diagnosis.

    In an interview on Oyinmomo TV, she said doctors told her that the medications she’d need to take could affect her ability to conceive for the next five years, potentially delaying her chances of having a child until her 40s.

    The 38-year-old said the news was devastating for her considering her age.

    However, Osoba said she refused to accept this prognosis and instead chose to hold onto her faith.

    She began a journey of prayer and fasting, combining spiritual practices with medical treatment.

    Fortunately, Osoba said that her CT scan results showed that the cancer hadn’t spread, and she underwent a second surgery to remove the remaining tumor.

    She said: “I was told I had cancer and that further tests would be carried out to check how far it had spread. The doctors also said I wouldn’t be able to conceive for the next 5 years because of the medications I’d have to take, as they could affect the baby.

    “Hearing that at 38 years old was devastating. I couldn’t imagine waiting that long. But I rejected the report and held on to my faith in God.

    “I began the journey with prayer and fasting, combining both the medical and the spiritual. When I did a CT scan, it came out negative; the cancer hadn’t spread. Eventually, they performed a second surgery to remove the remaining tumour”.
