Nigerian TikTok personality and streamer Peller has reversed his earlier decision to halt his ongoing nationwide tour, confirming that the trip will proceed despite recent backlash.
The influencer had initially mapped out a 20-state tour across the country, which kicked off on March 6, with stops including Ibadan, Osun, Ekiti, Ogun, Ondo, Kogi, Kano, Kaduna, Abuja, Borno, Edo, Port Harcourt, Imo, Abia, Akwa Ibom, Cross River, Enugu, Niger, and Ebonyi.
In a previous TikTok live broadcast, Peller declared that he was ending the tour, expressing frustration over what he described as negative reception in several locations.
“I am ending my tour, I am not doing the tour again. I am the one who said I wanted to do a tour and it is still me that is saying that it has come to an end,” he said.
“I am not doing again, I have put my hands up. You people do not like me, you are not good people. Any state I enter, you people would say I do not deserve to be welcomed like that. Why? What did I do?”
Shortly after, however, he made a dramatic reversal during another live session, this time streamed from Ebonyi State, stating that the tour would continue.
“You people should not be angry but I would not be able to end my tour, I cannot. We are live in Ebonyi state. See the beautiful city,” he said.
