Birthday Drama: Peller Tricks Kolu Into Returning ₦300k Gift After No ‘Thank You’

Social media has been buzzing after a dramatic birthday exchange between TikTok personality Peller and former Portable signee, Kolu, erupted into a hilarious viral moment.

What began as a generous ₦300,000 birthday gift quickly spiralled into a tale of impatience, misplaced trust, and a clever prank that caught everyone’s attention online.

According to Peller, he sent Kolu ₦300,000 to celebrate his birthday. However, just six minutes later, he became irritated when Kolu failed to acknowledge the gesture or send a simple “thank you.” Feeling slighted, Peller demanded the money back—but instead of asking directly, he devised a cunning plan.

He messaged Kolu:
“Send the ₦300k back. I want to send you ₦500k instead as your birthday gift.”

Excited by the chance to receive an even bigger amount, and unaware of the setup, Kolu quickly refunded the ₦300,000. But after sending it back, he waited only to realize the promised ₦500,000 wasn’t coming.

The revelation sparked embarrassment and confusion, fueling massive reactions across social media. Many viewers found the prank both funny and outrageous, with some praising Peller’s creativity and others sympathizing with Kolu.

One amused commenter wrote, “Imagine returning a gift and ending up empty-handed. Na wa for birthday wahala!”
Another added, “Never trust anybody promising double money on your birthday.”

The hilarious drama has continued to trend, with users replaying the viral video and debating whether Peller went too far or simply taught his friend a lesson in gratitude.
