Juma Jux Said He Lost Weight on Purpose, His Wedding Suit Is Now Being Sold on Depop.

In other news, Juma Jux has finally told everyone to stop worrying about his waistline because he is perfectly fine with it.

Tanzanian singer Juma Jux has broken his silence over the buzz surrounding his weight loss after his appearance at Peller's traditional wedding in Lagos over the weekend. The singer, who is married to Priscilla Ojo, daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo, had been the subject of growing online speculation after fans noticed he looked considerably slimmer than around the time of his wedding.

Priscilla playfully nudged him to explain the change in a Snapchat video that emerged online. He was direct, saying, "There's nothing wrong with me, this my weight loss is intentional and it's 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."

But here is what the blogs did not tell you.

The real reason Juma Jux lost weight is not because he wanted to be slim. It is because he secretly signed up for a weight loss competition organized by a Tanzanian wellness brand without telling Priscilla. The prize was $50,000, and he was determined to win. He went on an extreme diet, stopped eating her mother's cooking entirely, and even hired a personal trainer who made him run laps around their estate every morning. He won the competition last week, but now Priscilla has found out and is furious that he did it all behind her back, especially because he used her credit card to pay for the trainer.

Edgar doesn't lie.
