The incident reportedly occurred during the couple's star-studded white wedding in Lagos, which attracted a host of celebrities including Iyabo Ojo, Daddy Freeze, Zinoleesky, Cubana Chief Priest, and many others.
According to reports circulating on social media, the MC made a joke suggesting that Wizkid is bigger than Fela Kuti, a comment that apparently did not sit well with Seun Kuti, who was in attendance.
Eyewitnesses claimed that Seun stood up and declared, "We are in the wrong place," before walking out of the venue with his entourage . Videos and photos of the moment have since gone viral, with many social media users weighing in on the controversy.
The reported walkout comes amidst ongoing tensions between the Kuti family and fans of Wizkid, following a series of debates about the legacy and influence of Fela Kuti versus the commercial success of contemporary Afrobeats stars like Wizkid and Burna Boy.
Seun Kuti has previously expressed his views on the matter, often defending his father's legacy and challenging comparisons between Fela and modern-day artists.
While the MC's comment was likely intended as a lighthearted joke, it clearly touched a nerve, leading to one of the most talked-about moments of the evening.
Despite the drama, the wedding continued without further incident, with guests celebrating the newlyweds and enjoying the lavish reception.
Peller and Jarvis, who had earlier received a N400 million mansion gift from billionaire real estate mogul King Ochacho, appeared unfazed by the controversy as they enjoyed their special day.
The event was livestreamed to over 50,000 virtual guests, who watched the ceremony unfold in real time. The couple, who have now officially begun their married life, have not commented on the reported walkout, and Seun Kuti has not publicly addressed the incident.
However, social media has been buzzing with reactions, with some defending the MC's joke as harmless and others supporting Seun's decision to leave.
As the debate rages on, one thing is certain, Peller and Jarvis's wedding will be remembered not just for the love and celebration, but for the unexpected drama that came with it.
