Juma Jux: How I met Priscilla Ojo

Juma Jux, the Tanzanian singer, has revealed how he met Priscilla Ojo, his wife and daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo.

The couple held their Islamic traditional wedding ceremony in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania last Friday.

During a surprise second engagement party held in Tanzania on Wednesday, Jux revealed that they met at an airport in Rwanda.

He said she had laughed at him after he missed his flight and could not get a business class seat on the next flight.

He disclosed that he liked her from the first day but she played hard to get and would not text even when she collected his number.

The ‘Ololufe’ singer added that as they met subsequently, he realised that she was the woman he had been “waiting for”.

“The first day I saw Priscilla in Rwanda, I missed my flight and could not get a business-class seat because it was complete. I was pissed off, and after passing through the business class section, I saw her laughing at me,” he said.

“I told my team I would not talk to any of these ladies again, and later, we went to stay at the same hotel. She was not feeling well that day, while Chioma Ikokwu was charming and making friends with many people.

“I started a conversation with her friend, and from there, I gained confidence. We began talking. I liked her from the first day I saw her at the airport. There was something about her I couldn’t explain, but I knew my heart was drawn to her.

“She took my number, and I told her to text me, but she did not. When we met again, I texted her, but she did not reply. In East Africa, I have fans, and people recognise me, but when she was around, it was just the two of us.

“I did not care about anything else because I was on a mission. I had always been mindful of my brand, but none mattered with her. As we continued meeting, I realised she was the woman I had been waiting for. God brought everything together in His perfect timing.”
