Juma Jux's elder sister Fatima has stepped into the online conversation surrounding the Tanzanian singer's weight loss, defending him as critics questioned what was behind his noticeably slimmer appearance.
The chatter began after Juma Jux attended Peller's traditional wedding in Lagos, where fans and social media users were struck by how much leaner he looked compared to his physique around the time of his own wedding to Priscilla Ojo, daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo.

Fatima responded to the speculation with a firm but lighthearted statement, pushing back at those pointing fingers at her brother's wife over the change.
"My brother has chosen a new style: 'Slim Fit'. His body, his decision. There is food at home, there is peace, there is love. Please leave his wife alone, she is a good cook," she wrote.
Juma Jux Sets the Record Straight
Before Fatima weighed in, Juma Jux had already addressed the matter himself. In a Snapchat video that surfaced on Wednesday, 5 August 2026, his wife Priscilla prompted him to speak on the visible change in his body. He did not hold back.
The singer made it clear the slimmer physique was a deliberate lifestyle choice, not a symptom of anything worrying.
"There's nothing wrong with me, this my weight loss is intentional and its what I wanted. I am OK, I don't want my stomach to be big, I don't want to be chubby. I like myself now," he said.
