'Believe in your rubbish, it will make money for you' — Peller

A short but powerful moment from Nigerian streamer Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, has gone viral, starting conversations about creativity, confidence, and success in Nigeria’s growing creator space.

In a 22-second video circulating online, Peller shares a funny but meaningful line during an interview, saying, “Believe in your rubbish, just believe in it, it will make money for you one day.”

While people laughed, many say the message was clear: believe in your ideas, even if others don’t understand them.

At just 21, Peller has already built a strong online following. He became popular on TikTok and Instagram through chaotic and unusual live streams, content that many people once called pointless.

Instead of changing his style, he stayed consistent and turned what was mocked into a successful brand with millions of views and loyal fans.

The clip has connected with many young Nigerians, especially creatives trying to succeed online.

Reactions show that people see his words as a reminder that confidence and consistency can turn even strange ideas into success.
