Moment Peller obstructs wedding process in court after hearing five-year jail if he violates rules [VIDEO]
Popular Nigerian content creator Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, was captured in a viral video expressing shock over the legal implications of his statutory marriage to his lover, Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, better known as Jarvis.
DAILY POST reports that the duo legally tied the knot on Wednesday.
In a video making the rounds, the marriage registrar was heard explaining the legal implications of their vows to the couple.
“If any of you goes against the rule, he or she is guilty of an offence called bigamy. It is a punishable offence with a minimum of five years’ imprisonment, with no option of a fine.
“Should I proceed?” the registrar asked Peller and Jarvis.
Peller, however, raised objections, asking why a marriage born out of love should have anything to do with prison.

Peter Okoye bows to pressure, apologies for saying ‘Who Naija language help’
Nigerian music star Peter Okoye, professionally known as Mr P, has publicly tendered an apology to Nigerians over his “Who Naija language help?” comment.
DAILY POST reports that the singer had earlier questioned the value and importance of Nigerian languages.
He made the remark while responding to one of his followers on X.
The statement sparked controversy online, with many berating him.
Reacting to the backlash on X, Peter Okoye, who had earlier told his critics to do their worst, saying, “Again and again. Who Nigerian language help? If e pain you, go hit your head for wall,” however bowed to pressure and apologised to the general public.
He wrote on Wednesday evening: “If my response to ‘Who Naija language help?’ upset some people, I apologise and take full responsibility for my words. That does not mean I hate our Nigerian languages or culture.
“At no point did I say I hate the Igbo language or Igbo culture. I said ‘Naija language,’ referring to the different languages in Nigeria, but some individuals twisted it and made it seem like I specifically mentioned Igbo. I didn’t,” he stated.

‘I’m nobody without it’ – Rudeboy distances self from Peter Okoye’s ‘who Naija language help’ controversy
Paul Okoye, one-half of the defunct Nigerian Afrobeats duo P-Square, has distanced himself from his twin brother, Peter Okoye’s, “who Naija language help?” controversy.
Recall that Peter Okoye made the statement, “Who Naija language help? Make I hear word abeg,” on X while responding to a fan who asked if his children are fluent in Igbo, his native language.
The fan asked the question after Peter Okoye wrote: “Still in Paris! Watching my kids speak French so effortlessly makes me think maybe it is time to own a crib here in Paris.”
His statement about Nigerian languages, however, earned backlash on social media, with many rebuking him for making the comment despite infusing Nigerian languages into most of his songs and profiting from their commercial appeal.
Speaking amid the controversy, Peter Okoye’s twin brother, singer Rudeboy, distanced himself from him, stating that he is nobody without Nigeria’s languages and culture.
He wrote on X: “100% proudly Igbo. 100% proudly Nigerian. I’m a ‘nobody’, I repeat!! A nobody!!, without the culture, native language. 100% proudly Nigerian. 100% proudly Igbo.”
