Fresh concern has surrounded popular content creator Peller after reports claimed police detained him. Tunde Perry has now appealed publicly for his release, urging the Inspector-General of Police to show mercy.
ABUJA, NIGERIA — Social media personality Tunde Perry has appealed to the Nigeria Police Force to release content creator Peller following reports that he has remained in police custody for two days. According to videos and posts shared online, Perry said Peller’s management had worked continuously to secure his release since the reported arrest.
According to Tunde Perry, the reported detention relates to an issue involving a vehicle without a registration plate. He referenced a previous directive attributed to the Inspector-General of Police, which warned against operating vehicles without number plates. However, Extra News Nigeria has not independently verified the circumstances surrounding the reported arrest or detention.
In a video circulating on social media, Perry said, “Peller management hasn’t slept, they’ve been going up and down to get him out. IG of police already said if you don’t have plate number you should be arrested. Please IG forgive Peller and release him, he is a small boy.” As of the time of filing this report, Peller has not publicly commented on the reports, while the Nigeria Police Force has not issued an official statement confirming the reported detention.
The reported incident has generated widespread reactions across social media, where supporters and critics have shared differing views. Some users have called for due process, while others have urged authorities to consider the circumstances surrounding the case. Extra News Nigeria could not independently confirm when or where the reported incident occurred.
The development means public attention is likely to remain on the matter until the Nigeria Police Force or Peller’s representatives provide an official update. Further clarification from law enforcement authorities would help establish the facts surrounding the reported detention and any legal process that may follow. Extra News Nigeria will continue to monitor the situation and provide verified updates as they become available.
