In a celebration that blended cultures, fashion, and pure emotion, Priscilla Ojo, daughter of Nollywood star Iyabo Ojo, married Tanzanian music sensation Juma Jux, creating one of the most memorable weddings in recent times.
The celebration, tagged #JP2025, didn’t just unite two people; it brought together two rich traditions in a way that felt almost magical.
The Couple Tanzania Sensational Singer Juma Jux and Influencer Priscillia Ojo
Their story had been unfolding quietly but intentionally for months. In February, under the Tanzanian sun, they held a private wedding introduction, surrounded only by those closest to their hearts. It was simple, intimate, and powerful; a reminder that the strongest bonds often begin quietly. But Juma wanted to leave no doubts. Just before Valentine’s Day, he proposed again, this time presenting Priscilla with a stunning 5.2-carat diamond ring. The moment, captured on video, spread across the internet, touching everyone who saw it. It wasn’t just about the size of the ring — it was the tenderness, the effort, the thoughtfulness behind it.
When the couple hosted their civil wedding and traditional wedding in Lagos, the buzz only grew. It was a star-studded but warm affair, graced by the likes of Toyin Abraham, Mercy Aigbe, Chioma Good Hair, Enioluwa, Spyro, 9ice, Osas Ighodaro, Diana Eneje, Mercy Eke, Uche Montana, and Beauty Tukura, amongst other Nollywood and afrobeats stars, who all put their best foot forward, sharing candid, joyful glimpses into the day. The civil ceremony was only a prelude to what would be a breathtaking traditional wedding at Five Palms, Oniru.
From the first official portraits, Priscilla and Juma set the tone. Draped in rich royal purple traditional attire, they looked every bit like royalty, not just because of their outfits, but because of the undeniable bond shining through their smiles. Every detail of the day honoured where they came from, Nigeria and Tanzania, blending rituals, colours, and emotions into something unforgettable.
A deeply moving moment unfolded just before the ceremony when Iyabo Ojo was filmed passionately praying over her daughter. In a quiet, powerful exchange, Priscilla knelt before her mother, dressed in her bridal robe, as blessings poured out in a flood of love and tradition. It wasn’t a performance, it was real, raw, and beautiful.

The surprises didn’t stop there. Iyabo’s ex-husband, Ademidun Ojo, who hadn’t been seen during the Tanzanian ceremonies, joined the celebration in Lagos. In a video that quickly went viral, Iyabo and Ademidun were seen dancing together, a sight that dissolved old speculations about tension. Social media erupted in praise for Iyabo’s grace. “She changed the narrative,” one commenter wrote, and truly, it felt like she had.

Priscilla’s bridesmaids, dressed in soft pink lace dresses and traditional asooke geles, added even more colour and warmth to the day. Their looks, corseted, flowing, striped, each reflected a touch of individuality while keeping the group’s elegance intact. Even their bridal shower, which leaned into Tanzanian traditions, was a heartfelt nod to Juma’s heritage.

Fashion-wise, the wedding was a masterclass. Olive green, pink, maroon, and gold filled the venue as guests interpreted the palette in ways that felt both personal and grand. Priscilla’s two major looks stunned everyone: first, the royal purple dress beside Juma’s matching agbada, then a dazzling silver lace gown paired with a rich maroon gele. Juma’s maroon velvet agbada, embroidered to match, along with his traditional beads and staff, completed a picture of love and regality.

Iyabo Ojo was every bit the proud mother. Her green-and-gold Mubrik Luxury gown, with a beaded corset and a floral headpiece, made a statement of strength and elegance. She later changed into vibrant coral, orange, and red beads — a look that turned heads again and again.

There were moments of pure joy, too, like Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State surprising everyone by taking the stage to sing and dance. It felt less like a formal wedding and more like a grand, loving community coming together.

Among the many highlights, Papaya Ex made waves when she arrived in a sleek, daring dress boldly featuring the groom’s image across her bust — a bold fashion move that had tongues wagging online.

At the heart of it all, though, was the unmistakable truth: this was more than just a wedding. It was a celebration of love, family, resilience, and the beauty of two cultures woven together with joy and intention.
