The Silverbird Man of the Year Awards took place today, celebrating excellence across various industries. One of the most talked-about moments of the night was Peller’s win as Influencer of the Year, an achievement that left him briefly speechless on stage.
As he stepped forward to receive his award, Peller paused, seemingly overwhelmed by the moment. After taking a deep breath, he finally found his words, admitting that he never expected to win because the other nominees were strong contenders. He went on to express gratitude to Javis, his biggest supporter, saying, “We won this together. I’m not the only one taking this home.” His heartfelt words drew applause from the audience.
This win comes shortly after Peller was involved in a viral moment on February 27th, when a video surfaced online showing Burna Boy’s mother seemingly ignoring him at fashion show. The clip sparked discussions across social media, with many debating what had happened.
However, at tonight’s award ceremony, the focus shifted to a more positive moment when Peller met the Governor of Lagos State, His Excellency Babajide Sanwo-Olu. The Governor greeted him warmly and shook his hand, a gesture that has since generated buzz online. Many have praised the Governor for acknowledging Peller’s rising influence and showing him respect as a young talent in the industry.
From winning a prestigious award to making headlines for viral interactions, Peller’s presence at the Silverbird Awards marks another significant milestone in his career, further cementing his status as a force in the entertainment industry.
