Let’s just say it now: Samuel Perry (aka Broda Shaggi) understood the assignment a little too well. Because when the photos from Temi Otedola and Mr Eazi’s traditional wedding dropped, his look had us asking — was he a groomsman, the groom, or did he invent a whole new category called best-dressed best man?
Here’s why: Shaggi didn’t just wear agbada. He wore deep burgundy velvet layered with gold geometric embroidery that made the entire outfit feel like it belonged in a museum of modern Nigerian royalty. Every stitch whispered luxury, and every bead told us he didn’t come to play.
The agbada itself was dramatic in scale but refined in detail, dripping with hand-beaded accents that caught the light in the most delicious way. His matching fila cap, also embroidered with golden touches, sealed the look with balance and symmetry. Then he went full style storyteller by adding strands of black beads layered over the burgundy, giving a textural contrast that felt intentional and bold.
But wait, there’s more. He slipped on sleek round sunglasses for that effortlessly cool, “I’m here but don’t look at me unless you can handle it” energy. And because no look is complete without a grounding element, the polished black shoes tied it all together with quiet sophistication.

This wasn’t just groomsman attire. This was a masterclass in how Nigerian menswear can strike the balance between tradition and modernity. Regal without being loud, statement-making without being costume-y.
Broda Shaggi didn’t just attend Temi and Eazi’s wedding. He arrived dressed like the celebration itself. And honestly? We wouldn’t be mad if someone accidentally handed him the groom’s cup.
