Nigerian TikTok star Habeeb Hamzat, better known as Peller, has set social media ablaze with his unexpected requirements for a personal assistant (PA). The 19-year-old, famous for his comedic content, recently announced that he’s on the hunt for a first-class graduate with straight A’s to fill the role.
In a video post, Peller invited eligible candidates to submit their CVs, stressing his willingness to pay “any amount” to secure a highly educated assistant. “I want to make a public announcement,” he said. “God help me to do it. I need a PA who has straight A’s since they were born… If your bank job does not work out, you’ll enjoy working here.”
Peller’s declaration sparked an online storm. Many questioned if he was being serious or simply mocking those with traditional academic accolades. Some speculated that the young star might be pointing out the irony of academic achievements not always leading to financial success, while others viewed his demand as a genuine call for qualifications.
The uproar has stirred a broader debate on the relevance of academic success versus practical achievements, particularly as digital fame and financial independence redefine traditional career paths. Whether Peller’s requirement is genuine or simply a provocative social commentary, he’s achieved his goal of capturing attention and sparking dialogue on what it really takes to “make it.”
