When the photographer, however, checked his camera, he realised he never pressed the record button.
This development infuriated the couple, who arrested him and gave him an ultimatum to refund the money they paid him. Oluwanishola wrote:
"I apologize to this person for sharing his experience here but I think I want others too to learn.
"So this guy sent me a message. A photographer. He was paid to cover for a wedding. He went to the wedding. And was everywhere covering. Wedding ended, then he checked his camera only to see that he never pressed the record button.
"The couples had arrested him and has been given the ultimatum of Wednesday to refund them. So he approached me to lend him the sum of N450,000.
"I have told him I don’t have that kind of money to borrow him.
"I gave him what I can afford as gift.
"Photographers in the house, have you experienced this before? Or have a photographer done this to you before?"

"I'm a photographer.
"It's very possible.

"Luckily he realized early.
"Buh how possible he wasn't able to record any clips.
"Because videos are recorded clips by clips."
