City Plug Entertainment has released an official statement concerning the shocking incident involving popular content creator, Peller, who was allegedly abducted during a livestream session earlier this week.
Posting on their Instagram page, the management confirmed that the skit maker and influencer was “whisked away by unknown persons and later dropped off safely.”
According to the statement, Peller is currently receiving medical care and being closely attended to following the traumatic experience.
While details of the incident remain unclear, the entertainment company strongly cautioned against the spread of misinformation. It warned that circulating unverified claims risks trivialising what it described as a “serious matter.”
“We remain grateful to God for his protection, and deeply appreciate the swift assistance of the DPO Maroko, the Ilasan Police Division, as well as the fans, colleagues, and well-wishers who reached out with concern and prayers,” the statement read in part.
City Plug Entertainment further disclosed that the matter has been handed over to the appropriate authorities for investigation. The management appealed for privacy as inquiries continue but assured the public that updates would be shared once new information becomes available.

Peller, known for his engaging livestream sessions and comic skits, has steadily built a large following online, becoming one of Nigeria’s fast-rising digital entertainers. His ability to connect with fans in real time has made him a household name among Gen Z audiences.
The incident has therefore generated heightened public attention, with many emphasising the vulnerability of creators when streaming content live to a wide audience.
Although no official details have been provided about the identities of those involved in the alleged abduction, City Plug Entertainment assured the public that law enforcement agencies are actively handling the case.
The statement also emphasised that speculation could hinder investigations and urged the public to rely only on verified updates from Peller’s management.
Concluding its statement, City Plug Entertainment thanked fans and industry stakeholders for their outpouring of support and solidarity. The company reiterated its commitment to prioritising Peller’s well-being while navigating the aftermath of the incident.
