Why I dropped out of university despite paying over ₦2 million – Peller

Popular TikTok streamer Peller has responded to critics questioning his education, insisting that he still plans to return to school despite the backlash he receives online.

Speaking during a live session, he revealed that he once secured admission into a university and paid over ₦2 million in fees but eventually abandoned the programme after the institution allegedly failed to keep its promise.

“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.

Peller explained that he enrolled after the university allegedly promised he would be allowed to attend lectures while continuing his online streaming in the class. However, he claimed the school later changed its position.

He also alleged that he paid more than any other student at the institution.

“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 sparked mixed reactions online, with some praising his determination to continue his education, while others questioned his claims about the university fees.

Peller’s remarks come amid ongoing conversations about education following rapper Ycee’s criticism of the growing “Olodo uprising” and what he described as “Peller culture” in Nigeria.
