Peller dragged over juju allegation

Legit.ng reported that a man publicly called out Peller, making a startling claim about the streamer’s alleged rise to fame.

According to the man, Peller visited his shrine several years ago seeking spiritual assistance to become famous.

He alleged that Peller arrived in tears and pleaded with him to help him “blow up,” claiming that he subsequently performed a spiritual ritual on the content creator’s behalf more than three years ago. The man issued a stern warning to Peller, insisting that the streamer return to him and “do the right thing” or risk facing serious consequences. The allegations have since sparked reactions online, with social media users weighing in on the controversial claims.
