Popular TikTok content creator, Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, has alleged that suspected hoodlums stole mobile phones belonging to some guests at his traditional wedding in Lagos.
Speaking during a TikTok livestream on Monday, Peller said several guests reported that their phones were snatched outside the wedding venue while the ceremony was in progress, adding that he had been compensating some of the victims.
“I’ve spent a significant amount replacing some of the stolen devices,” he said, noting that the situation had left him frustrated.

“Agbero don occupy Lagos. Agbero plenty pass guests wey come to my wedding. People wey come say dem dey snatch their phones. Una know how many phone I don pay for?” he said.
He recalled that one female guest allegedly had her phone stolen shortly after arriving at the venue.
