Celebration in Canada: Juma Jux and Priscilla Welcome Their New Bundle of Joy

Celebrity couple Juma Jux, a renowned Tanzanian music sensation, and his Nigerian wife, Priscilla Ojo, have officially embarked on a new chapter of parenthood, welcoming their first child, a baby boy. The joyous event took place in Canada, marking a significant milestone for one of East Africa’s most talked-about duos.
The exciting news was first brought to the public's attention by Priscilla’s proud mother, Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo. Taking to her social media platforms, particularly Instagram, on August 24, 2025, Iyabo shared a heartwarming photo of herself cradling her new grandson in the hospital, with a radiant Priscilla by her side. She playfully announced her new status, charming fans with the caption, “Say hello to the latest sexiest grandma in town, my grandma is the cutest.”
The newborn has been named Rakeem Ayomide Mkambala. Both Juma Jux and Priscilla also shared glimpses of their baby boy on their respective Instagram accounts, which quickly garnered a wave of love, excitement, and congratulatory messages from their vast fan base across Nigeria and Tanzania.
This joyous arrival follows a whirlwind year for the couple. Their relationship, which first captivated public attention last year, culminated in a series of wedding ceremonies earlier in 2025. They publicly announced their pregnancy in July 2025, and just days before Rakeem's birth, they hosted a lively gender reveal party, confirming they were expecting a son.
Reports indicate that both the new mother and baby are in good health, and their families are celebrating this precious new addition. The overwhelming support from their followers underscores the couple's widespread popularity. Remarkably, baby Rakeem Ayomide Mkambala has already captured hearts, amassing an impressive 105,000 followers on his Instagram account within just one day of its creation, further highlighting the public's excitement for their growing family. As Juma Jux and Priscilla cherish every moment with their newborn son, they embark on this beautiful journey of parenthood, with well-wishes continuing to pour in.
