Nigerian international and Bayer Leverkusen forward Victor Boniface sent social media into a frenzy after unexpectedly turning ₦500,000 into ₦1 million during a lively livestream hosted by popular influencer and content creator, Peller.
The surprise moment unfolded during an interactive session where Peller engages celebrities and fans with spontaneous games and giveaways. When Boniface was presented with ₦500K, the Super Eagles star casually upped the stakes, declaring he would double it on the spot leaving Peller and thousands of viewers stunned.
“Let’s make it ₦1 million,” Boniface said with a smile, prompting cheers across the stream and an instant flood of reactions online.
The gesture quickly trended across platforms such as X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and TikTok, with fans praising the striker’s generosity, charm, and down-to-earth personality.
“He’s a blessing on and off the pitch,” one fan wrote. “Victor Boniface really understands the assignment.”
Peller, clearly taken aback during the moment, later thanked Boniface for the unexpected gesture, calling it a “massive highlight” of his streaming career.
Boniface, fresh off a title-winning season with Bayer Leverkusen and gearing up for Nigeria’s next international fixtures, has become one of the most talked-about Super Eagles players of his generation. Known for his electric playing style and positive presence, the 23-year-old continues to win admirers far beyond the football pitch.
This latest act of kindness has only cemented his reputation as one of Nigeria’s most grounded and generous sports figures.
Social media summed it up best: “Victor Boniface didn’t just double the money he doubled the love.”
