1 / 3

The Nigerian Army has arrested two serving soldiers over their alleged involvement in an unauthorised deployment at the Lekki wedding of TikTok creators Peller and Jarvis. Military sources said the soldiers, both attached to the 81 Division Medical Services and Hospital in Lagos, were taken into custody after intelligence linked them to security duties at the celebrity event. Videos from the wedding showed uniformed personnel around guests, including footage alleged to show a soldier escorting TikTok personality Ivanna through the crowd. The videos sparked criticism and questions over the use of military personnel at a private social event. Preliminary investigations are ongoing to determine the soldiers' level of involvement and whether other personnel were connected to the deployment.
