Power outage triggers heated confrontation between event planner and groom who spent over N10m on his wedding

Tension reportedly escalated at a wedding reception in Owerri after a prolonged power outage at the event venue led the groom to confront the event planner in full view of guests. According to eyewitness accounts circulating online, the confrontation occurred after electricity supply failed at the venue and the standby generator was allegedly not switched on for hours. The resulting heat and discomfort reportedly forced many guests to leave the event early, disrupting the celebration. Witnesses said the groom, visibly upset by the situation and the breakdown of the event, stepped out of the hall to challenge the event planner over the failure to restore power. The confrontation reportedly became intense, prompting people at the scene to physically restrain the groom to prevent the situation from escalating further. The incident followed reports that significant sums were spent on the wedding and venue booking, making the disruption particularly distressing for the couple. Guests alleged that food and drinks were wasted as attendance thinned, while the bride was left emotionally shaken by the turn of events. Watch the video below      View this post on Instagram
