    She addressed the criticism directly, writing: “Womb watchers and calculators. Another confusion for you, this was the first time we actually got married after our private introduction last year.

    “We were already married before the Nikkah we posted—that was to celebrate with friends and family members.”

    Priscilla, who is daughter of Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, emphasised that the couple chose to keep their real wedding discreet and away from the public eye.

    Meanwhile, Nigerian influencer, Enioluwa, a close friend of Priscilla’s, revealed in a separate post that the couple is expecting a baby boy.

    The news has continued to generate buzz across social media, with fans and followers sharing congratulatory messages and expressing support for the couple.

    How I made Iyabo Ojo accept Juma Jux as son-in-law after initial refusal – Chioma Goodhair

    Media personality, Chioma Ikokwu, popularly known as Chioma Goodhair, has opened up on how she convinced veteran Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo to allow her daughter Priscilla’s relationship with Tanzanian singer Juma Jux.

    TheNewsGuru reports that Priscilla Ojo on Thursday and Sunday tied the knot with her Tanzanian lover and singer, Juma Jux, in a glamorous ceremony that lit up Lagos.

    Speaking via Instagram, the socialite explained that Ojo was wary when she became privy of her daughter’s relationship with Jux.

    The media personality however stated that she spent nearly two hours trying to persuade Iyabo to give the relationship a chance.

    Though initially hesitant, she said Iyabo approved the relationship on the condition that Juma Jux was serious about marriage.

    Chioma said she vouched for the singer’s intentions, revealing that Juma had already expressed his desire to marry Priscilla early in their relationship.

    “It was one thing encouraging @its.priscy and @juma_jux on their love at first site quest but it was a whole other thing convincing queen mother to allow a big time Tanzanian artist date her only daughter and prized possession Priscy,” she wrote.

    “At the time we didn’t have any Tanzanian ties, nor had we been there. It all just seemed so far fetched. But the little time I spent around Juma in Rwanda was enough for me to know that he was a good man with a good heart that was absolutely smitten by Priscy from the jump.

    “It wasn’t easy convincing Iyabo. I remember walking all the way from Oxford circus to the end of Knightsbridge (almost 2 hours) tryna convince her. And after that she would call every other hour saying ‘but Chioma this blog said this and that blog said that’.

    “I’d say ‘but you and I know most gossip blogs are inaccurate and unfounded’ plus I had grilled Juma enough in Rwanda when he expressed his profound interest in my little sis so as God would have it I had solid answers for every single one of Iyabo’s concerns.”

    “Shortly after that she said well if she’s gonna date him then he better be ready to marry her and I said I promise you he will (he told me he wanted to marry her on day 1). Like a joke we started planning the wedding on this call. This was August 2024,” she continued.

    “It was so funny because they had just become official bf & gf and here we were speaking the actual details of a wedding into existence. Iyabo was saying they must come to Nigeria to take her and then we can do one in their country too.

    “I was laughing at first because of how detailed she was being but then I quickly got serious because anyone who truly knows Iyabo knows how prophetic she is. Whatever she speaks with her mouth comes to pass just as she says it. Fast forward barely 3 months later we started planning an actual wedding- the #JP2025 you’ve all come to be a part of.

    “@iyaboojofespris I want to also honour you today for the incredible human that you are. This wedding has truly proved how loved you are and I’m happy that nations are calling you blessed. Thank you for handing over Priscilla to me as my little sister the way you have taken me as your own little sister.”
