A moment from Nigerian streamer Peller and his partner Jarvis's traditional wedding has gone viral, and it is not one the couple likely planned for.

Habeeb Adelaja, widely known as Peller, and Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, better known as Jarvis, tied the knot in a lavish traditional ceremony held in Lagos on August 1, 2026.

The celebration was every bit the grand affair fans expected, until an unexpected silence brought things to a standstill.

When the groom's family entered the hall singing and dancing, the MC paused the proceedings to follow Yoruba custom, which requires the bride's father to come forward and formally welcome the groom's family before they are permitted to take their seats.

The MC called out repeatedly, growing more insistent with each attempt, but nobody stepped forward. In his words: "Mummy, where is daddy? Pls help me call the bride's father, the groom's family is here to pay homage before they can be allowed to go and sit. In Yoruba land, if the bride's father is not seated... Bride's father, your attention is needed."

However, the hall remained silent as no one stepped forward, such as the bride's father.

The awkward episode quickly sparked conversation online, with many viewers pointing out that Jarvis had previously spoken about not having a relationship with her father. Others directed their frustration at the MC for failing to establish these details ahead of the event.

Here is the Instagram video of the MC calling out to the bride's father below:
