Priscilla Ojo has responded to Tanzanian social media users who demanded she “free” her husband, singer Juma Jux, following concerns over his slimmer appearance. The Nigerian influencer dismissed the criticism with a playful remark, saying “second belle don enter.”
Fan Campaign Sparks After Wedding Appearance
The backlash began after Jux attended the widely publicized wedding of Nigerian influencers Jarvis and Peller, where fans noticed he looked significantly slimmer than they remembered. The observation quickly snowballed into a #FreeJumaJux campaign among Tanzanian fans, with many linking his weight loss directly to his marriage to Priscilla.
One commenter wrote, “Free Jux. He's a big artist, and seeing him lose so much weight so suddenly is really worrying and painful for his fans.” The comments flooded both Priscilla and Jux's social media pages, with some fans playfully, and some more seriously, urging Priscilla to “leave their brother alone.”
Priscilla’s Humorous Response Goes Viral
Rather than stay silent, Priscilla engaged directly with critics in her comment section, dismissing the concerns with humour. Responding to the pile-on, she quipped that “second belle don enter,” a cheeky Nigerian expression suggesting the changes people were seeing were simply signs of a happy, well-fed marriage rather than neglect. She insisted her husband was doing just fine and playfully suggested he was enjoying all the attention his new look was generating.
Screenshots of the exchange quickly went viral, splitting reactions online. While some found the back-and-forth funny, others defended the couple and pushed back on critics for what they described as unnecessary policing of Jux's physical appearance.
Juma Jux and Family Previously Addressed Weight Loss
Jux himself has previously addressed questions about his slimmer look, saying he is happy with his current physique. His sister, Fatima, has also spoken up in his defence, backing both his transformation and his relationship with Priscilla.
Priscilla, daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo, and Jux, a Tanzanian Bongo Flava star, married in 2025, and their relationship has continued to draw significant attention across both Nigeria and Tanzania.
