Priscilla Ojo Mkambala, a Nigerian fashion influencer, has spoken about the public speculation surrounding her husband Juma Jux's fertility prior to the birth of their first child. She made the disclosure during an interview with Chude Jideonwo.
Ojo explained that people in Tanzania, where Juma Jux is based, questioned his ability to father children. This was because, at the time, he had no known children despite being in previous relationships and having peers in the music industry who were fathers.
She said the absence of a child or "babymama" led some to believe he was impotent. "In his country Tanzania, people thought he was impotent because he did not have a child or babymama like his many of his friends and colleagues. They were like, 'Why he is not having kids like his friends?' Because obviously, he has been in past relationships," she said.
Ojo defended her husband, describing him as disciplined and intentional about fatherhood. "They were questions but he knew when it was time. He is very disciplined. He knew what he wanted. You can roll with certain people and not be like them," she stated.
The couple welcomed their first child, Prince Rakeem, in August 2025. This came several months after they concluded their wedding ceremonies.
Priscilla Ojo highlights that Juma Jux faced public doubts over his fertility despite no medical confirmation, while his peers fathered children. The scrutiny was based solely on comparison with other musicians who had children from various relationships. His eventual fatherhood does not erase the pressure public figures face to conform to reproductive timelines. The assumption that childlessness equals impotence remains a persistent social myth in some circles.
