Nigerian content creator Tunde Perry has alleged that fellow social media influencer Peller has remained in police custody since Friday, raising concerns over the prolonged absence of the online personality.
The claim comes after fans questioned why Peller had been inactive across his social media platforms in recent days.
Arrest Allegedly Happened in Lekki
Speaking during a TikTok Live session, Tunde Perry alleged that Peller was arrested while returning from a content production location in the Lekki area of Lagos.
According to him, the arrest was linked to the vehicle Peller was driving, which allegedly had tinted windows and no registration plate.
Tunde Perry further claimed that although the incident began in Lekki, the matter was later transferred to Ikeja.
Social Media Silence Sparks Concern
The influencer said Peller’s continued absence online was due to his alleged detention.
His comments came after several followers noticed that Peller had not posted any new content since Friday, prompting speculation about his whereabouts.
A review of Peller’s social media activity shows that his last public post was indeed made on Friday.
Earlier Encounter Reported
Reports also suggest that before the alleged arrest, Peller had an encounter with individuals described as area boys at the filming location.
According to the reports, the group allegedly demanded money from the content creator before he left the area.
However, it remains unclear whether the earlier incident was connected to the subsequent police action.
Police Yet to Issue Official Statement
As of the time of filing this report, the Nigeria Police Force has not released an official statement confirming the arrest or the allegations surrounding Peller’s continued detention.
Likewise, no formal charges have been publicly announced.
The development has generated widespread discussion on social media, with supporters calling for clarification from the relevant authorities regarding the influencer’s status.
