Tanzanian singer, Juma Jux, has denied fathering a child with a Tanzanian woman, insisting that he has never been physically intimate with her.
Jux spoke out days after he and his wife, Nigerian actress, Priscilla Ojo Mkambala, celebrated the first birthday of their son, Rakeem.
The singer said the allegation had surfaced previously but he chose to address it after it began involving his name, family and businesses.
Jux said he contacted the woman involved, identified as Musika, to understand why she had made the claims.
“Musika confirmed in her own words and voice that she had never been physically intimate with me nor had a romantic relationship with me,” Jux said.
Jux said the allegation has now resurfaced and the matter has been handed over to legal authorities, adding that further action would be taken against Musika.
He also warned the media and members of the public against spreading what he described as misleading information about the allegation.
Jux said he would handle the matter through legal channels, adding that he had chosen “calmness, truth and the appropriate legal steps”.
