The woman alleging Tanzanian singer Juma Jux fathered her child has taken her demand for a DNA test directly to Tanzania's Minister of Community Development, Gender, Women and Special Groups, Dr Dorothy Onesphoro Gwajima, in a public post that escalates the paternity dispute.
Alleged Baby Mama Calls for DNA Test
In her post, the woman addressed Dr Gwajima as "my mother" and made her central demand clear: "The solution to the issue between me and the artist JUMA JUX is that I am asking that we do a DNA test. I am asking you, my mother, because that is the only way we can establish the truth and determine who is lying in this story."
She also directed a message at the singer, writing: "The DNA will decide, and the truth will always be proven. A mother knows the father of her child." The post came after Jux, who is married to Nigerian influencer Priscilla Ojo, released a formal public statement on Friday, 28 August 2026, fully denying the allegations.
Juma Jux Denies Allegations, Threatens Legal Action
Written originally in Swahili, the singer's statement described the rumours as completely false and harmful to his reputation, family and business. Jux explained that he had initially chosen to stay silent, believing the claims would die on their own, but when they began gaining traction, he decided to respond publicly.
He revealed that he had personally contacted the woman after the allegations first emerged, and that she had confirmed in her own voice that they had never been in any romantic or sexual relationship. She had even advised him not to give the matter further attention, he claimed.
With the story resurfacing and escalating, Jux said the matter has now been placed in the hands of legal authorities. He also used the statement to challenge the culture of spreading unverified stories, urging media and the public to confirm facts before amplifying them.
"Anyone who chooses to associate my name, my family, or my businesses with false allegations must be prepared to be held accountable according to the law," he wrote, closing with the words: "I have chosen peace, truth, and the appropriate legal action."

In a post that circulated online on Thursday, August 14, 2026, Dr Gwajima described those behind the campaign as acting out of misguided allegiance, warning them against picking quarrels with Juma Jux's in-laws. Her message sparked reactions on the Nigerian social media space.
