Billionaire King Ochacho has broken his silence on the controversy surrounding the house he gifted popular TikToker Peller, firmly denying claims that the gesture came with strings attached.

"I didn't give him the house to come and start advertising my son. No! It's not because of my son's music. I just gave to him from my heart," Ochacho said, gesturing emphatically during the outdoor interview.
Peller's house still under construction
The billionaire also clarified something that had gone largely unnoticed: the house is not yet ready. Ochacho confirmed that construction is still ongoing.
"As I speak to him now, the house is under construction. I am trying to put it together to hand over to them," he explained.
He went further, saying that because of Peller's goodwill, he has decided to furnish the home as well, and would even allow Peller to influence the interior design choices.
Ochacho did not hold back when addressing the online commentary, questioning why anyone would criticise a gift given without conditions or expectations.
He acknowledged that Peller chose to promote Ice King on his own, and that decision only motivated him to do more for the TikToker.

Peller mocks CDQ over music promotion request
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Peller mocked rapper CDQ during a livestream after allegedly being approached to help promote his new song to the top of the streaming charts.
Peller questioned why he should prioritise CDQ’s track when he was already committed to promoting Ice King, the teenage son of billionaire King Ochacho, whose family has supported him with major gifts and opportunities.
The TikTok star stressed his loyalty to Ice King, referencing the mansion gifted to him and his wife by King Ochacho while explaining why the young artist’s project takes priority on his platform.
