Human rights lawyer and activist, Deji Adeyanju has slammed popular Tiktoker, Habeeb Hazmat, aka Peller for condemning Nigerians participating in the viral ’30 days rant challenge’, warning that it could result in the banning of the video-sharing app in Nigeria by President Bola Tinubu’s government.
Peller suggested that the online protesters leave TikTok and go to Instagram instead.
“If you want to really rant, go to Instagram; go to the market; don’t rant here on TikTok. If they ban TikTok, that’s where we will have issue,” he said.
“Let’s protest. Let’s go outside. Let’s leave TikTok. Online something is just mumu mumu,” he added.
However in a post on his Facebook page on Tuesday, Adeyanju who described Peller as a ‘boy’ said the Tiktoker has no right to tell Nigerians how to express their frustration.
He also said Peller should be in school rather than being on TikTok.
“Who’s this boy saying people should not rant on TikTok? Is TikTok your father’s house? Shouldn’t you be in school instead of on TikTok? Are you not too young to be doing TikTok? You have no right whatsoever to tell Nigerians how to express their frustration!”.
