Juma Jux and Priscilla officially tied the knot in a series of ceremonies beginning with an Islamic traditional wedding in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, in February. This was followed by their white and traditional weddings in Lagos, Nigeria, in April. They wrapped up the festivities with a grand celebration back in Tanzania in May.
The couple went public with their relationship in July 2024, making headlines across East and West Africa.
Priscilla Ojo, born on March 13, 2001, is a graduate of Media and Theater Arts from Babcock University. She began her acting career at age 14 with the film Beyond Disability, a role that earned her a nomination for Best Child Actress at the Best of Nollywood (BON) Awards.
Juma Jux, whose real name is Juma Mussa Mkambala, started his music career at the age of 16 and signed his first record deal with A.M Records in 2008. He has since become one of Tanzania’s leading R&B stars.
