Peller denies pregnancy allegation, warns accuser: 'Una family go beg'
Peller denied allegations that he impregnated a woman outside wedlock after she claimed in a video that she is carrying his child and that he asked her to terminate the pregnancy. He took to social media, warning the woman with the words, 'Una see that lady wey talk say she is pregnant for me and that babalawo if I don touch Una own then una family go beg.' The claim remains unverified, and no independent evidence has surfaced to support the accusation.
The incident highlights the growing trend of using scandalous claims for online clout and the potential harm to reputations when unverified accusations spread. It also raises legal questions about defamation and the responsibility of both accusers and influencers to verify information before going public. For Peller, the controversy could affect his brand partnerships and follower trust.
