In a surprising turn of events, the celebration of a Bachelor’s Eve and Bridal Shower in Akure, the Ondo State capital, took a dramatic twist on Friday night. As the joyous occasion was abruptly interrupted when operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) stormed two major clubs in the city.
The EFCC agents whisked away the groom and bride, who were set to wed the following day, along with several of their friends to the Ibadan office.
The incident left many Ondo residents in shock and disbelief as the celebration quickly turned into chaos.
Reasons for the arrests remain unclear as well as details surrounding the EFCC’s operation and the grounds for the couple and their friends’ arrests.
The abrupt disruption of the pre-wedding festivities has cast a shadow over the planned wedding and left the general public in bewilderment.
