Popular Nigerian content creator Peller has broken his silence on a deeply painful chapter of his life, revealing that he was sexually assaulted by a 40-year-old woman when he was still a teenager.

According to Peller, the incident occurred at a friend's house. He had gone to visit, and his friend's mother took advantage of the situation and sexually abused him. Despite the gravity of what had happened, he kept silent about it for years.
Why Peller never told his parents
The creator explained that silence felt like the only option at the time. His parents had explicitly warned him not to visit that particular friend's home, and coming forward with what happened would have meant admitting he had disobeyed them.
Caught between the trauma of the assault and the fear of parental consequences, he carried the burden alone.
