My mum doesn’t want me to give my father money – TikTok Peller

Popular Nigerian streamer, Peller, has opened up about his family dynamics, revealing that his mother disapproves of him giving money to his father.

The disclosure came during a reaction to content creator GehGeh’s recent family controversy on social media.

GehGeh had been called out by his younger sister for allegedly abandoning his siblings despite his wealth. In his response, GehGeh explained that he was the first in his family to achieve financial success but expressed that he didn’t have enough money to lift his entire family out of poverty. “I never get the kind of money wey fit raise family from poverty,” he said, while advising his siblings to seek jobs and not rely on him.

Reacting to the controversy, Peller, during a Livestream session, revealed that his own family situation is similar, with his father once threatening legal action against him. He recounted how he had given his father a significant amount of money, including a car gift, yet continued to face financial pressure from him.

“I have given these people a lot,” Peller shared. “My mum was even telling me to stop. My mum no wan make I dey give my daddy anything, but I keep giving him money because he paid for my school fees while growing up.”

Peller went on to explain that despite gifting his father a car, his father continued to ask for more money the very next day. “My daddy still asked me for money the very day I gave him a car. I gave him the money, and he still called me the following day to ask for more money.”

The streamer also touched on his support for his mother, revealing that he had opened multiple shops for her, a gesture that left him feeling the weight of familial obligations.

“If I tell you guys how many shops I have opened for my mummy, you go run,” he concluded, shedding light on the complexities of family expectations and the emotional toll of financial responsibility.
