Nigerian online streamer and content creator, Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as , has stated that he does not feel close to his family any longer.

Speaking in a recent conversation with fellow TikToker, Sandra Benede, the 19-year-old lamented that he is the breadwinner of his family.

He revealed that a lot of responsibilities have being forced on his shoulders at a very young age.

The content creator stated that he now prefers sending his family money for upkeep as he doesn’t wish to see them anymore.

Peller said, “I’m not feeling okay. The other day, I slept off in my car till the next morning. I don’t like what I am facing in this young age. I’m not even up to 20 years. It is not fair.

“I don’t like seeing my family anymore. I just send them things to make sure they are okay. I don’t like to see them again because my mentality is higher than living with my parents. My mentality now is higher than theirs. It feels like I’m their parent even though I have an elder brother.

“I struggle like a parent. I don’t rest. Sometimes, I feel like running away to hide somewhere in America and go offline. I have been meaning to do it but I don’t want them to be worried. Before I used to miss my mum whenever I travelled as a child. But right now, I don’t miss any of my family members anymore. The only person I will mis is Jarvis. I communicate with my family through phone but I don’t miss them.”

He said, “I’m very sad at the moment because there has been a false rumour spread about me and Fathia.

“I don’t know what to do because an actor has accused me of dating and having sex with Fathia.

“I and Fathia are very close to each other to the extent that nobody can find out why we love each other. I and Fathia will be together forever because she is my helper.
