Popular TikTok streamer, Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, has announced attendance rules for his white wedding with his wife, Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, popularly known as Jarvis, saying bloggers and excessive camera coverage will not be allowed at the ceremony scheduled for Saturday, August 8, 2026.

Speaking in a video shared on social media on Sunday, August 2, 2026, Peller said he wants a more private atmosphere for the church wedding after his experience at the traditional ceremony.

According to him, there were more bloggers than invited guests at the traditional wedding, with some people allegedly buying aso-ebi just to gain access to the event and record videos.

“My white wedding is on August 8. I don’t know who brought those bloggers to my wedding. I don’t know how bloggers will be more than the guests. Some people bought aso-ebi just to come and record us. I want only 80 to 100 people at my white wedding,” he said.

Peller said the white wedding would be an intimate event with only 80 to 100 guests.

He also claimed that some people who attended the traditional wedding appeared to be more interested in creating content than celebrating with them.

Despite his concerns about the crowd and media presence, Peller said the traditional wedding was successful.

“Anyway, the traditional wedding was a success,” he said.

Big Brother Naija host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu has criticised the Season 11 housemates for their lack of energy and initiative during their first week on the reality show.

Ebuka delivered the assessment during Sunday night’s live show, saying many of the contestants appeared to be waiting for events to unfold instead of creating memorable moments.

He said he initially believed the housemates were still adjusting to their new environment but became concerned after watching their preparations for the wager task.

“Too many of you were just not there. I thought it was just day two and you all were trying to acclimatise,” he said.

“Then the wager task happened, but the build-up to it was lackadaisical, especially from the ladies. I did not want to think too much of it.”

Ebuka said the pool party also failed to produce the level of excitement expected from the contestants.

“But then, I watched the pool party. It was more like I did not watch it because I went to bed at some point. It was not just it,” he said.

The host urged the housemates to become more proactive and take greater control of their experience in the house.

“I have been trying to find the word to describe the week, and I think the right word to use is that there are so many of you waiting for things to happen, and not many of you are making things happen,” he added.

His remarks served as a wake-up call to the contestants as the reality show entered its second week.
