TikTok personality and streamer, Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, narrowly escaped a fire outbreak at his Lagos residence after a generator caught fire in the early hours of Saturday.
The social media influencer disclosed the incident via his Instagram page, sharing a video that captured the early-morning blaze.
In the footage, flames were seen engulfing the generator as Peller, visibly shaken, called for help while efforts were made to extinguish the fire.
The blaze was eventually brought under control after sustained efforts using buckets of water. Although the generator was completely destroyed, no casualties were recorded, and the building remained intact.
Fans and followers flooded the comment section with messages of relief, attributing the outcome to swift intervention and providence. The video has since circulated widely across social media platforms, sparking renewed conversations around household safety precautions.
As of the time of filing this report, the cause of the fire had not been independently confirmed.
The incident comes months after Peller was involved in a separate scare along the Lekki–Epe Expressway. During that episode, captured in a widely shared livestream, the influencer appeared visibly emotional while driving his Mercedes-Benz, raising concern among viewers.
The broadcast drew attention after he made a series of distressing remarks during a phone conversation believed to involve his girlfriend, amid speculation about their relationship. The situation escalated when the vehicle reportedly collided with a roadside object.
