Nigerian singer and rapper Jesse Jagz has criticised celebrities who endorse and promote betting and gambling companies.

The music star expressed his views in a recent post on X, where he strongly condemned the practice and argued that public figures should not encourage gambling.

“We suppose to dey stone any artist promoting bets and gambling.”

Geh Geh Mocks Men Who Cry Over Heartbreak

Published

on

Social commentator Geh Geh has reacted to a viral video of a man crying after the end of a relationship, saying the man should see the breakup as freedom rather than a reason to mourn.

Speaking in a video shared online, Geh Geh expressed disbelief that a man in his 40s would be heartbroken over a relationship with a much younger woman.

According to him, the woman was 19 years old, and if the man’s account of the relationship was accurate, he had been carrying most of the financial responsibility. He argued that the end of such a relationship should be seen as an opportunity to move on.

He said:

“Na Nigeria I see 40 years old man dey cry because of heartbreak. Who break your heart? 19 years old girl. Una dey disappoint me well well. Na 19 years old girl. She’s not educated, she no get money. Her papa poor. Na you dey carry this people responsibility, that person come leave you, instead of make you dey rejoice for freedom, for leaving bondage, you come dey cry…”

Peller Explains Why He Dropped Out of University After Paying Over ₦2 Million

Published

on

Popular TikTok streamer Peller has responded to criticism about his education, revealing why he dropped out of university despite paying more than ₦2 million in school fees.

Speaking during a live session, Peller said he still intends to return to school, stressing that it is not too late for him to earn a university degree.

“My woman is a graduate, and my future child will also be a graduate. We are all going to be graduates. Time is not late for me to go back to school,” he said.

According to Peller, he gained admission into a university after being assured that he would be allowed to continue streaming his online content while attending classes. However, he claimed the institution later failed to honour that agreement, forcing him to stop attending.

He also alleged that he paid over ₦2 million in fees, insisting that the amount was higher than what other students at the school paid.

“The university I wanted to attend whined me. They deceived me that I would be streaming my classes, but they didn’t allow me stream, so I stopped going. I paid over ₦2 million. Even students attending that school today have never paid that amount, but I did,” he added.

His comments have generated mixed reactions on social media, with some praising his determination to continue his education, while others questioned his claims about the university fees.

Peller’s remarks come amid ongoing public discussions about education following recent criticism from rapper Ycee over what he described as the rise of “Peller culture” in Nigeria.
