“My English Is Very Bad” – Peller Breaks Down, Reveals Plan to Return to University

Popular Nigerian streamer and content creator, Habeeb Hamzat, widely known as Peller, has revealed plans to return to the university after admitting that his poor command of English has become a major personal concern. Eyes Of Lagos reports,

Peller made the emotional disclosure during a recent viral live stream with fellow content creator, Enzo, where he spoke candidly about his struggles with spoken English.

Despite his rapid rise to fame and financial success through streaming and online entertainment, the influencer admitted that communication remains one of his biggest challenges.

According to him, the inability to express himself fluently in English has affected his confidence, especially when engaging with a wider, international audience.

The streamer disclosed that he has now decided to return to school, stating that he plans to study Arts at the university level in order to improve his communication skills and personal development.

“My English is very bad. I’m going to the university soon to study arts. I need to improve myself,” Peller said during the live session.

Peller also revealed that his struggle with English has made him anxious about meeting global influencers and content creators.

He specifically mentioned popular American stars DDG and iShowSpeed, saying he currently cannot imagine having a proper conversation with them.

“I can’t see myself meeting DDG and Speed because how would I communicate with them?” he added.

The announcement comes amid weeks of public attention surrounding Peller’s highly publicized breakup with fellow content creator and love interest, Jarvis, a situation that has kept him trending across social media platforms.

Following the revelation, reactions online have been divided. While many fans praised Peller for choosing self-improvement and education, others pointed out the irony of his decision, recalling moments when he previously mocked university graduates.

Nevertheless, supporters have applauded his honesty and encouraged him to pursue education regardless of age or status.

Learn from YouTube, you don't need degree for that

Who told this one they learn how to speak good English in the Unuversity?

The only way to get better is to speak it always and continue practising it

Education is Paramount, not a necessity but it is very essential.

He should consider learning Chinese instead.

Just get a good English teacher and read books. Finish

He will be fine as time goes on.

What’s special about the English? It’s an ordinary language like your mother tongue. If you can’t speak in another man’s language speak in your mother tongue and employ an interpreter. Much ado about nothing.

Oga, go start from 'Pamary' School

Who told you they learn English in the University

Oga don leave content dey do begi begi.

No body is pitying you young man.

You want to go learn how to speek English language in a whole university

He only needs primary/secondary school to learn if at all he needs a formal school to learn that.

The guy self dey behave like local boy

You don't learn English in the University o. You can get a private teacher and try online or go back to secondary school

But I thought he was deliberately speaking bad English like Funke in Jennifer. Your English must be really bad for you to be speaking like that.

Them no dey teach English speaking in highschool, unless you wanna start from the Basics

And which other place can you do that but the university? While, it also depends on the school. He can afford to attend good schools. When he interacts with other students and professors and instructors (plus the obvious of taking courses), his English will improve drastically

If you intend to get a degree, it's fine. But not a yardstick for a good command in English. We have graduates who find it difficult to express themselves in English language.

Start from the foundation. Maybe primary or secondary curriculum. That's where you will learn the basics. Learning Arts in the university may not do much except you do a personal intentional study outside the department's curriculum.

Exactly my take. This is the exact thing I said. From my personal experience.

English is just a language, not a measure of success, you don’t need to go to school to learn hausa, Igbo or English speaking

Please don't make racist and tribalistic comments on this section

Life is very much ahead of him. Just make sure you invest your money wisely.

I hope in 20 years time he will not tell story of how he used to be rich.

Exactly. Deliberate and intentional is the key.

You learn that too in school, not just English but communication skill, social interaction with serious minded people as they develop together Sir, he would also learn character and be reshaped by the school .

Good morning Sir

He is going to the wrong route. University doesn't teach you English, you practice and improve on it. That place can only give you a certificate

Let’s give him a round of applause 👏🏼

You can't school in Harvard and don't know how to speak English fluently

When I dey watch some of this guy comedy skit, I thought he speaks like that because he's cracking jokes, until I watch his live streaming I realise this is no joke.
It will not be expensive for him to hire an English teacher for himself,it's not too late.
Learning English language is not by going to the university, it's by learning it from the basics.
Make the guy go buy Queen premier joor!!

Na now you know good for you

This early morning of the new year, see what the OP is bringing to the table. Abeg, shift, this useless news shouldn't have made the platform at all.....that local village urchin money missed road..na now him know say kaki no be leader, that education is not scam...

Its not nessasary na pride and quick money u get makes u unwise and stupid

Did he finish secondary school? If yes, then what are schools of today teaching?

A SS graduate should be able to command good English.

University won't improved your English, if you failed PS/SS.

Foundation of English is PS and SS. It's better he gets private tutors or return back to SS.

He Should join Jehovah's Witness or Latter Day Saints, within one Year he will improve by far

But, some ignoramuses say education is a scam.

Having money is good, no doubt; but having money without education would always make the possessor feel inadequate, especially in a circle of enlightened minds.

This is why many rich illiterate people would spend their last dime in ensuring that their children get the best of education.

Let no one deceive you!

Education is not a scam!
