Nigeria’s Most Famous Magician .


BIRTH AND EARLY DAYS

He was born in 1941 at Iseyin, Oyo State
and he was named Moshood Folorunsho
Abiola. He would later pick on the stage name of ‘Professor Peller’, an appellation that has stuck to him like asecond skin.

GROWING UP
While growing up, he was nicknamed
Moshood Olori Pupa (Moshood the Red- Headed Boy).
-One of his classical performances
included putting his wife in a ‘magical
coffin’ and severing the same coffin into
two halves with a ‘magic coffin’. There is
no spirit at work here, When Peller was performing, there was
really no Internet as we have it today, so
it was quite easy to fool people in their
millions. Now, YouTube is spoiling the
show for many magicians except the
most ingenious of them. Here are few
more magic clips on YouTube just to let
you know they do not conjure any evil
spirit or demon, it is nothing but sheer
trickery.


HIS MAGICAL PERFORMANCES AND
EXPLOITS

Peller was a prolific magician with
many shows, some of which were the
Invisible General, the Escaping Box,
Changing Dresses and the Zigzag. One
thing with Peller’s performances is that
they were executed with maximum
finesse and excellence. He was thorough
and professional. Perhaps, if not for
death, he might have even eclipsed David
Copperfield of the USA in fame.
Copperfield is presently the greatest
magician on earth and the first person
to make one billion dollars from magic.


DID HE ACTUALLY CUT HIS WIFE INTO
TWO?



I will call many Nigerian
politicians magicians). So what happened
that fateful day when Professor Peller
allegedly ‘sliced’ his wife into two but
could not put her back together and she
almost ‘died’?
It was at the National Theatre in
Iganmu, Lagos and the Lagos State
Governor, Alhaji Lateef Jakande was
present at the occasion to represent
Chief Obafemi Awolowo. The event
started as planned but then the Peller
team decided to throw in a suspense-
filled event, as their usual practice when
they have events following one another
every evening. The essence was to create
so much suspense so that they will draw
in even more crowd by the next day. So
for day one, the idea was to create an
illusion that he ran into trouble while
sawing his wife in half. But then, the
next step involved ‘reviving’ her. After
the ‘cutting’, which was obviously done
with a lot of dramatic effects, the crowd
went into a frenzy and began to shout
‘We want Lady Peller!’, ‘Give us Lady
Peller!’.
Later in 2012, the 66-year-old Lady
Peller was interviewed and asked about
the incident and she insisted that Peller
actually cut her into two and she even
sustained some light injuries. If you
really want to clear your mind on this,
just watch the video below. Even in
hemicorporectomy in surgery where the
entire half of a human is severed,
survival rate is very low. Enjoy this
video and see how magicians ‘cut’ people
into halves

LOVE, ROMANCE AND MARRIAGE



Alhaja Silifat
Adeboyin Peller 
Which Nigerians knew her as Lady Peller and
she is most famous for the act in which
she was ‘sliced’ into pieces by Peller and
had a hard time putting her back. Now
66 years of age with her husband gone
and not remarrying, she is tending to
her grandchildren while reminiscing
over the glittering wonders of an empire
of magic that once held sway. Lady Peller
was born in Kishi, Oyo State where her
father was the Chief Imam and had five
children for him, while also raising
many other step-children.

HIS DEATH

Yes, Peller was assassinated. It was on
fateful day on the 2 nd of August 1997.
Interestingly, he was killed the same day
that Fela Anikulapo-Ransome Kuti also
died. Peller was attacked at his residence
in while observing his evening prayers
at Onipanu, Lagos State and he was
fatally shot by unknown gunmen.
Nigeria and all kinds of unsolved
murders, brutal killings and blood-
curdling assassinations.
