Nollywood star Toyin Abraham has arrived in Tanzania to join in the 40th-day celebration of baby Rakeem Ayomide Mkambala, the son of influencer Priscilla Ojo and Tanzanian music star Juma “Juma Jux” Mkambala.

Priscilla Ojo and Juma welcomed their son in Canada on August 24, 2025. The homecoming videos have since warmed hearts, especially as Priscilla and Rakeem were met by family members including her mother Iyabo Ojo, and by Juma Jux himself upon arrival in Dar es Salaam.
Also present at the 40th-day celebration was Festus Ojo, Priscilla’s brother. Festus, who is often private, was spotted proudly carrying out his role as uncle to baby Rakeem. Videos and photos from the event showed him sharing affectionate moments with the newborn and standing close to his mother, Iyabo Ojo, and sister Priscilla. His presence added to the intimate family atmosphere, balancing the star power of the guest list with the warmth of close relatives.


Toyin Abraham’s appearance adds glamour and warmth to the celebration. Though she was not present for the birth, she has publicly congratulated the couple and shared her excitement at being part of the 40-day festivity. Her journey to Tanzania is seen as a gesture of solidarity, especially among Nollywood circles where friendships often go beyond mere professional ties.
The celebration is expected to combine traditional Tanzanian customs with Nigerian cultural elements, reflecting both parents’ backgrounds. Guests are preparing for a joyous gathering with music, prayers, and shared meals—a blending of cultures in a festive atmosphere. Photographs and clips from the airport already showed emotional moments as Priscilla, her mother Iyabo Ojo, and baby Rakeem were greeted warmly.

So far neither Priscilla nor Juma have shared full details of the celebration schedule publicly, but online audiences are eagerly watching. Many expect Toyin Abraham to take central roles in the events, given her closeness to Iyabo Ojo and prominence in Nigerian entertainment.
With both nations represented, the 40-day ceremony promises to be a heartwarming showcase of love, family, and cultural unity.
