Popular Nigerian content creators Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, and Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, better known as Jarvis, have formally become husband and wife after exchanging vows at a court wedding.

Videos from the civil ceremony, which emerged online on Wednesday, captured the couple taking their vows and signing the marriage register in the presence of family members and close friends.

The ceremony marks another major step in the couple’s widely followed relationship and comes days before their white wedding, scheduled for August 1, 2026.

Peller and Jarvis had earlier announced the date of their white wedding through a cinematic video shared on their social media pages, generating excitement among fans and fellow entertainers.

The couple also recently unveiled their official pre-wedding photographs, describing the images as more than photographs but lasting memories created ahead of their big day.

“Our hearts are full, our smiles are real, and we’re counting down to forever. See you at the wedding,” they wrote in a joint Instagram post.

Before the court wedding, Peller completed the traditional marriage rites in Benin City, Edo State, where he met Jarvis’ family and paid her bride price.

The couple’s court wedding has since drawn congratulatory messages from fans and colleagues across social media.

Anambra-born pharmacist and actor, Chimsom Chuka, has emerged as the first Head of House in the 11th season of Big Brother Naija, earning immunity from eviction for the week in the show’s opening challenge.

Big Brother announced Chimsom as the winner after he recorded the fastest overall time in the inaugural Head of House task held on Monday, the first full day of the competition.

The challenge saw the male housemates compete against one another while the female contestants also battled separately before the best performers were compared to determine the winner.

Abi, a chef and model from Osun State who finished second overall, was named the Deputy Head of House.

Unlike previous editions of the reality show, the winner will not automatically occupy the luxurious Head of House loft this season.

Instead, Big Brother introduced a new twist, requiring Chimsom to pick a housemate through a lucky dip to enjoy the privilege.

After selecting from a yellow lucky dip box, Chimsom picked Tram, who was immediately granted access to the Head of House loft for the week. Tram subsequently chose Sheba to share the apartment with him.

Although he will not stay in the Head of House residence, Chimsom retains the major advantage of the position, immunity from this week’s eviction, alongside other leadership privileges and a special treat from Big Brother.

The development marks one of the biggest twists introduced in the newly launched season, separating immunity from occupancy of the exclusive Head of House quarters.

Before entering the house, the 27-year-old described himself as someone who remains calm under pressure and intended to stay authentic throughout the competition.

“The biggest strength I have is being myself,” he said in his pre-show introduction, adding that he hoped viewers would connect with his genuine personality rather than a manufactured game plan.

As of the time of filing this report, the housemates were still participating in the nomination process for possible eviction later in the week.

The 24 contestants are competing for the show’s grand prize of ₦160 million in the “Show Ya Sef” edition of the reality television programme.
