Peller promises tighter security at white wedding
Determined not to repeat the experience, Peller said his white wedding, scheduled for August 8, would be completely different.
He had previously announced the event would be restricted to just 100 invited guests, with security personnel deployed to keep uninvited individuals away from the surroundings.
“No worry, my white wedding no go be like the way una do that day,” he said.
The traditional wedding, tagged #JP2026, united Peller and his partner Elizabeth Amadou, popularly known as Jarvis.
The ceremony drew an exceptional crowd, including Nollywood stars Iyabo Ojo, Eniola Badmus, Moyo Lawal and Aunty Ramota, musicians Zinoleesky, Seun Kuti and fuji giants Kwam 1 and Sule Alao Malaika, as well as socialites Cubana Chief Priest and Pretty Mike of Lagos.
The couple also received remarkable gifts, including bundles from Cubana Chief Priest, $20,000 from American TikTok personality Gregory Pizarro Jr., a plot of land in Abuja valued at N150 million from Lawrence Emmanuel, and a fully furnished mansion in Abuja’s Life Camp reportedly worth N400 million from businessman King Ochacho.
