Peller, a TikTok content creator, said that phone thefts and a road accident outside his wedding venue disrupted guests, and he wants his next white wedding to be different.
During a livestream, Peller reflected on what he described as the chaotic atmosphere around the venue on the day of the ceremony. “No worry, my white wedding no go be like the way una do that day. Na so I see one video wey car go jam one guy,” he said. He blamed the incidents on suspected hoodlums popularly known as agberos. “Agbero don occupy Lagos. No be small. Agbero plenty pass guests wey come to my wedding. Agbero plenty outside. People wey come say dem dey snatch their phones. Una know how many phone I don pay for?” he added.
Peller claimed one female guest had her phone stolen shortly after arriving at the venue. “One girl, as she reach, na so dem snatch her phone for gate. Dem run away,” he alleged. He also recalled learning about a reported accident while he was inside the hall celebrating. “Me wey I dey inside hall dey do my wedding, na so them say I kill person. ‘Agbero stay for front of car. Them say comot, he no gree. The car owner vex con jam am,’” he said.
The content creator’s remarks highlight security concerns at large events in Lagos. While police have not yet issued a statement on the alleged incidents, the claims may prompt event organisers to review security protocols. Peller’s comments also suggest that future wedding planners may seek to avoid the same disruptions by implementing stricter crowd control measures.
The situation underscores the challenges of managing large gatherings in a city where street crime can spill over into public events. Whether the allegations are verified remains to be seen, but they have already sparked discussion among event organisers and attendees about the need for better safety arrangements. As the story develops, authorities and event planners will likely examine how to prevent similar disruptions at future celebrations.
