  Happy weekend to everybody. So for today's episode, let me
• 0:21
  just dive into today's episode, because I am boiling, we are
• 0:26
  still going to be talking about cost of weddings.
• 0:30
  You know, we've heard a whole lot of people like a vast when
• 0:35
  they catch them, they ask them. Okay, why are you stealing?
• 0:38
  Some of them will tell you because my wedding is coming up
• 0:41
  or because my marriage is coming over because I have a child on
• 0:45
  the way all because I want to propose to my girlfriend, you
• 0:48
  know, they always have this need for money, woman to be talking
• 0:53
  about Charles chukwuemeka, Only Millie to Charles is, you know
• 1:00
  his parents are first generation immigrants.
• 1:04
  They relocated to the US and then I think there were two of
• 1:09
  them, the elder brother of the younger brother, Leo David
• 1:12
  actually was cute, he like a drive-by shooting, everybody was
• 1:18
  kind of thinking about what is going on and according to the
• 1:22
  story he is Norm is a very loving woman.
• 1:27
  And she is part of the church activities.
• 1:30
  She's a Catholic. People look up to her for advice
• 1:34
  and everything. So, when they were younger or
• 1:36
  the other brother died, people were kind of, very evil PC
• 1:40
  Hardware. Like her, this woman, she
• 1:42
  doesn't have any problem. Why would this kind of thing
• 1:45
  before the family? So the other product in the
• 1:48
  world is the older brother chao's to quit Mecca, only
• 1:52
  Millie, he decided to get married.
• 1:56
  He proposed to his girlfriend. Friend, and that was two years
• 1:58
  ago. So this rack planning, where did
• 2:00
  the girlfriend is a nurse? And when did I planning with
• 2:03
  nothing during the pandemic, they already have kind of, you
• 2:07
  know, people that like big waiting don't plan for what you
• 2:11
  cannot afford. I always say these things.
• 2:14
  If you cannot afford it, don't do it.
• 2:16
  Don't do they even plan for it. Because, as long as immediately,
• 2:20
  you start planning for from something, you cannot afford and
• 2:23
  your may be back in on somebody to give you a loan or your
• 2:26
  backing. Who gets a loan from A bank or
• 2:29
  anything. Anyway, you're planning to get
• 2:31
  that money, you're going to run into problems because I'd end of
• 2:33
  the you might not be able to put those bills, somebody might
• 2:37
  disappoint you and then you're stuck with all these monies,
• 2:40
  that you don't even wait till you're going to get them from.
• 2:43
  So his wife being a nurse and him being, you know, allegedly
• 2:49
  Contracting. Whatever is Contracting.
• 2:51
  Solid plan your wedding. They both decided they were
• 2:54
  going to have a very big wedding.
• 2:56
  That was how they Dated over two years ago because engage you
• 2:59
  were planning for wedding. Then the pandemic hit.
• 3:02
  I think he lost his job for the fiancee at that time was to walk
• 3:07
  in. So they started making their
• 3:11
  plans and we did this period. Give him a chieftaincy title
• 3:15
  although in a state. So he is and also basically, and
• 3:23
  he decided to live up to that expectation.
• 3:26
  He decided to To show people that, you know, as I'm also, I
• 3:30
  have to do a big wedding. We did during those Panda me,
• 3:34
  they were so many robberies that were going on, they call the
• 3:37
  person, the blue clothes Bandit. So this person what they do is
• 3:42
  just to go into different shops or different mole and the cover
• 3:48
  the gone in a blue cloth. So when they get into these
• 3:52
  places, they just open it until you give me all the money and
• 3:55
  and he's alone. He's Not like he has an
• 3:57
  accomplice or anything like that to, he was hitting the said he
• 4:01
  hits allegedly almost 70 different businesses at that
• 4:09
  point in time from 2020 up. Until this point he has robbed
• 4:14
  over almost 70 Business like like anyway, let me just go back
• 4:20
  to the story. So The police, everybody was
• 4:24
  looking out for this blue Club Bandits out, they were talking
• 4:27
  about people couldn't find, you know, everybody because he would
• 4:31
  disguise himself, he has the heart, he wears like a mask and
• 4:36
  then he wears gloves. So you wouldn't even know who
• 4:39
  whether he was white black. And then Charles took my Mecca
• 4:44
  decided, you know, traditional marriage was massive.
• 4:48
  They did a massive traditional marriage that was in May I think
• 4:52
  Think they did a traditional marriage in me.
• 4:54
  It was the talk of the time. We went viral.
• 4:56
  If we were like, oh my God, this also is living up to his title.
• 5:00
  His, this is that. So in July, when the white
• 5:03
  wedding happened, David decided to shut the whole a lay down
• 5:09
  because they rented a massive hole, it was it was beautiful.
• 5:12
  They did pre-wedding shoot they they like there was no expenses
• 5:18
  no expenses were paid at that point everybody dressed.
• 5:21
  Well It was a beautiful event anywhere viral worldwide in
• 5:26
  Nigeria and UK YouTube. Everybody was talking about this
• 5:31
  wedding. Everybody was like, wow, this is
• 5:33
  how if you're getting married outside Nigeria.
• 5:36
  This is how it's supposed to look like, people will happy for
• 5:39
  them. People were commenting about the
• 5:41
  wedding. Those who are getting married
• 5:43
  are looking up to them, like, okay, this is the yardstick if
• 5:47
  you are living abroad, this is what you're supposed to be
• 5:48
  doing. This is how you're supposed to
• 5:50
  plan a wedding. This is How you supposed to chew
• 5:53
  it? People, we're talking about is
• 5:55
  people analyzing it. People are looking up to them,
• 5:59
  they got married. You know, my last video, I was
• 6:02
  talking about, it's not about the wedding, who is about a
• 6:04
  marriage that comes after the wedding.
• 6:06
  So after their wedding, the blue cloth Bandits was still hitting
• 6:11
  stores, still in from different people.
• 6:14
  But allegedly he made a mistake where he used because normally
• 6:18
  they said he would just rent vehicles and then You fake names
• 6:23
  and they could not trace him back to those in vehicles.
• 6:28
  So what happened was that he actually used his fare home?
• 6:31
  I don't know what, you know what, you get.
• 6:33
  So caught me if you don't 60 or 60, I think they said it's 68
• 6:38
  robberies, you get Siri new, you start forgetting things.
• 6:43
  Basically, you will not remember all the details of what you
• 6:46
  don't know, where you be know, which vehicle you've used to
• 6:50
  according to the detective I said the blue cloth Bandit used
• 6:54
  vehicle twice, so they caught that on camera and they were
• 6:59
  able to trace the the cup back to his.
• 7:03
  He actually uses very good for this one.
• 7:06
  So they traced the car because they've been looking for him
• 7:08
  now. Like anybody would look like
• 7:10
  everybody was looking out for this particular and robot when
• 7:16
  he used a vehicle, they traced it back to his house.
• 7:19
  They actually went to their house and they saw Evidence of
• 7:23
  the gloves of the Mask of the blue cloth undergone that he was
• 7:27
  using to do these things. That was how to acquire Mecca.
• 7:32
  Charles only Miller was arrested this went viral because the US
• 7:38
  authorities they've been looking for this guy.
• 7:41
  Although he has not killed anybody.
• 7:43
  He didn't he just come in as long as we give him?
• 7:47
  Nobody knows if somebody has refused to do that, if he would
• 7:51
  have Risottos, using the corn. Nobody was aware of that, but
• 7:55
  according to the story, he has not used, he didn't use any
• 7:58
  force in all those things. But for somebody to Rob 68
• 8:02
  times, that person is extracted escalating, there's a
• 8:06
  possibility that the next one, he might just lose it or freak
• 8:10
  out and kill somebody. So they his bill was successful
• 8:15
  about 1.6 million dollars. Like there was no way he's
• 8:19
  getting out of this situation in.
• 8:22
  Anyway, see every major news. Outlets carried the news, carry
• 8:27
  the picture. The news people that posted the
• 8:30
  videos on social media like the YouTube wedding videos, it was
• 8:34
  taken down people started analyzing the situation.
• 8:37
  They said, was it the wedding that drove this guy to steal, or
• 8:42
  has, your has been a thief and the wedding just gave him like
• 8:48
  an opportunity or a motive or earnest?
• 8:51
  Cues to go ahead and steal from people instead of actually
• 8:56
  walking instead of actually saying, okay, we can only afford
• 9:00
  this amount of money like see the people like blaming this
• 9:04
  situation is is the parents because if you know that your
• 9:09
  child, your child is not working and your child wake up one day
• 9:14
  to say that they want to spend a hundred thousand dollars or it
• 9:20
  200,000 the last one year. Dean, I, you know that this your
• 9:23
  daughter, this your son cannot afford, why we'll say something.
• 9:29
  Why not say something. Your son is renting out a a 2000
• 9:33
  capacity, whole your son is like, like I'm sitting.
• 9:39
  Now seeing all these things. A lot of people are saying that
• 9:42
  maybe the wife is not aware of the fact that he's doing all
• 9:47
  these things and see if you're you're engaged to somebody.
• 9:51
  Buddy. And, you know, that this is what
• 9:54
  this person. Even if the person come and tell
• 9:56
  you that they are, this is their lifestyle.
• 10:00
  As long as this person does not have their Lifestyles.
• 10:02
  No much, the money, they are bringing in, you have to ask
• 10:06
  questions, you have to ask questions.
• 10:09
  Like okay, even if you have this money, can we not do something
• 10:13
  else with this money? Why everybody is just want to
• 10:17
  have a people on social media? I want a big wedding.
• 10:19
  We want our wedding to be talked of now, Your arrest, your
• 10:23
  picture is side by side with his picture because you are the
• 10:28
  bright nobody, everybody's posting his picture and happy to
• 10:32
  because the wagon was what actually broke the internet.
• 10:35
  The wedding was what people were talking about.
• 10:38
  So you cannot show that wedding picture without showing the
• 10:41
  lady. That is the truth and this is
• 10:45
  avoidable situations. When I talk about people paying
• 10:50
  for what they can afford, And it sounds as if you do, you know
• 10:55
  why not allow people to do what you want to do.
• 10:57
  Okay, they've done what they wanted to do and this is what
• 11:00
  this is. This is the result of it.
• 11:02
  Sometimes people need to just sit down take a breather and
• 11:07
  decide on what they want to do with your life.
• 11:09
  You mustn't live your life to please people.
• 11:13
  You mustn't, leave your life to blow on social media.
• 11:16
  You mustn't live your life because you want to go viral.
• 11:19
  Look for legitimate means you die.
• 11:20
  You can do. If you want to sponsor a big
• 11:23
  wedding day, a response or if nobody's agree to lend you
• 11:26
  money, then sit down and do what you can afford.
• 11:29
  I mean, everybody, the whole world is in economic crisis,
• 11:33
  that right now, the whole world is about to go into recession.
• 11:36
  Nobody, if you decide to be a small wedding, nobody's going to
• 11:39
  come and tell you, why are you doing your wedding small?
• 11:42
  Why is it not big? Why is nobody?
• 11:45
  Because the ones I isn't, those are telling you asking you,
• 11:48
  those questions, they are in debt.
• 11:50
  They are trying to Survive on a daily basis.
• 11:53
  So nobody's going to come and ask you questions or oh I don't
• 11:58
  think anybody who come and tell you.
• 12:00
  Why are you inviting other people to your wedding when
• 12:02
  you're supposed to inviting 2,000 people like nobody is
• 12:05
  going to tell you that people who pressure on themselves.
• 12:09
  People try to outshine or I'll do other people.
• 12:13
  People don't even care about you all this one's not that you're
• 12:17
  trying to outshine all out. Do they are living in their
• 12:21
  houses? The acting we got wives, they
• 12:23
  are with their families and you, you are in, you know, police
• 12:27
  custody. Are you?
• 12:29
  Maybe never going to get out of it.
• 12:31
  And your wife face is plastered all over the Internet saying
• 12:35
  that she is the wife of the blue cloth Bandit.
• 12:38
  What we gain in all these things.
• 12:41
  What is the gain? People need to sit down and
• 12:44
  think about ways that they can do things that will benefit
• 12:49
  them. You can do a You can go out
• 12:52
  still if he has succeeded because here is sick.
• 12:56
  I mean, the words, what it was in July, so he was no longer
• 13:00
  still into to pay for the wedding.
• 13:03
  Now, he's stealing to maintain that lifestyle.
• 13:07
  He's tending to maintain the lifestyle because if you have,
• 13:11
  you paid all this money for all this wedding and people are
• 13:14
  still expecting you to keep up the OZO title, and you are not.
• 13:18
  So, now, you're going for and events people expect You to
