On April 17, 2025, a spectacular union took place when the families of Iyabo Ojo from Nigeria and Mkambala from Tanzania gathered for the traditional wedding of their daughter, Priscilla, to son Juma. The wedding, held at the Five Palm in Oniru, Lagos, welcomed numerous celebrities and distinguished guests, embodying elegance in every detail, from décor to seating arrangements. This event marked the final traditional ceremony celebrating the couple’s commitment to each other.

The couple showcased their cultural heritage by wearing matching blue and pink traditional attire, complemented by bridesmaids and groomsmen in harmonious pink outfits. The day was filled with joyous celebrations as Priscilla’s parents, Ademidun and Iyabo Ojo, rejoined for this significant occasion, despite their previous separation.

A memorable highlight involved Juma seeking the bride’s family’s blessing for her hand in marriage, followed by Priscilla gifting Juma a heartfelt throw pillow featuring a picture of his late father. Emotions ran high as she expressed her love to her parents before leaving to start her new life with Juma, dancing with both her mother and father while Juma shared a dance with his sister, Fatma.

Throughout the ceremony, close family friends supported Priscilla, ensuring everything ran smoothly. Notably, actress Toyin Abraham took charge of organizing the event, managing guest tags and attending to the needs of the bridesmaids. Entrepreneur Chioma Ikwoku fulfilled big sister roles, while Priscilla’s best friend and influencer Enioluwa Adeoluwa catered to her every requirement.

Reflecting on their wedding day, Juma expressed, “I feel great. It is like a dream come true. I have been waiting for this day for so long.” Priscilla shared that their love began in Rwanda, where she felt an instant connection. “It was a very different night; we instantly felt a connection,” she stated.

For the reception, Priscilla changed into a green and wine-colored dress, while Juma wore a matching wine agbada. The couple’s cake-cutting moment was punctuated with sweet kisses. The ceremony featured a special performance by Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, whom Priscilla introduced to Juma, who, impressively, had been learning Yoruba and incorporating it into his music.

The wedding celebrations culminated in an after-party where the couple cherished moments with friends. Prior to the wedding, a mother’s night ceremony was held, capturing hearts online with Iyabo Ojo’s attendance amidst prayers and songs in honor of her daughter. Additionally, the bridesmaids arranged a surprise Tanzanian-themed bridal shower, clad in the local fabric known as “khanga.”
