- Media personality Priscilla Ojo has opened up about the scrutiny her husband, Tanzanian singer Juma Jux, faced in his home country regarding his fertility before the birth of their son.
- Ojo revealed that because Jux had no children or “baby mamas” by age 35, unlike many of his entertainment industry peers, Tanzanians frequently questioned his ability to father a child.
- Defending her husband, Ojo described Jux as a “disciplined” man who intentionally waited for the right partner and the right time to start a family, despite the pressure of past relationships.
Priscilla Ojo, daughter of Nollywood veteran Iyabo Ojo, has used a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo to clear the air regarding the birth of her son and the character of her husband, Juma Jux.
Eko Hot Blog reports that according to Priscilla, the absence of children in Jux’s life prior to their marriage led to widespread rumors in Tanzania that he was impotent.

She noted that his decision to remain childless into his mid-30s was seen as an anomaly in an industry where many of his colleagues already had growing families.
The speculation did not end when the couple announced their pregnancy.
Priscilla shared that even after their son, Prince Rakeem Ayomide Mkambala, was born, critics claimed the child was a product of surrogacy or medical implantation.
She attributed these claims to a public that struggled to accept Jux’s deliberate approach to fatherhood.
“He knew what he wanted,” she stated, emphasizing that Jux refused to follow the social patterns of those around him until he met her.
The couple’s journey has been a high-profile international affair, beginning with a civil wedding in Tanzania in February 2025, followed by lavish ceremonies in Lagos.
The birth of their son in Canada in August 2025 served as a definitive rebuttal to the years of gossip.
Priscilla remains a staunch defender of her husband’s reputation, reinforcing that their family was built on discipline and mutual readiness rather than societal expectation.
