”Na why! I swear, na why! See, take a look of this. Na why. Una no just sabi anything,” he added.
The creator insisted that modern financial stability changes everything for young people today. However, his bold views caused serious drama online. Some public figures like broadcaster Frank Edoho completely rejected his dating advice.
”Our mama and our papa go dey lie for you, eh, see, especially they go dey tell you say, ‘Ah, that time I’m going to school, I dey enter, I dey walk… I dey walk with leg.’ Let me tell you, na poverty. I swear to Almighty God, na poverty,” Peller concluded.
