Tanzanian music star Juma Mussa Mkambala, popularly known as Juma Jux, has announced that he will be performing live in Lagos this December. The concert, scheduled for Thursday, December 18, 2025.

The show marks Jux’s first major concert in Nigeria, and it comes at a time when the singer has gained popularity in Nigeria after his marriage to Nigerian influencer Priscilla Ojo, daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo.

Jux, who has been a prominent figure in East Africa’s music scene for years, is well known for blending Bongo Flava, Afrobeat, and R&B sounds to create soulful, romantic music. His songs like “God Design” and “Ololufemi” have become fan favourites, especially among Nigerian listeners.

The Tanzanian singer, often called “African Boy,” first broke into the Nigerian spotlight earlier this year when clips of him and Priscilla went viral on social media. The couple’s love story quickly made waves across both the Nigerian and Tanzanian entertainment spaces, with fans expressing excitement over the growing cultural connection between the two countries.

Now, Jux seems ready to deepen that connection through music. His upcoming Lagos concert promises to be a night of rhythm, romance, and African unity.

With his growing fan base in Nigeria, many believe the show will mark a new chapter for the singer, who has long spoken about expanding his reach beyond East Africa. The Lagos concert will also serve as a platform to introduce more Nigerians to Tanzania’s vibrant Bongo Flava sound and strengthen cross-cultural music ties.

Fans across social media have expressed anticipation for the show, with many saying they look forward to hearing him perform his romantic tracks live.

Juma Jux began his music career in 2005 and has since built a reputation as one of East Africa’s most stylish and successful singers. He has collaborated with top African artists, including Vanessa Mdee, Diamond Platnumz, and Nyashinski. Known for his smooth vocals and fashionable image, Jux has won several awards and continues to be a major voice in the African music scene.

With his Lagos concert set to take place just days before Christmas, fans are already calling it one of the highlights of this year’s Detty December. Every December, Lagos transforms into a hub of music, fashion, and culture, with concerts and festivals lighting up the city. Jux’s concert is expected to draw both Nigerian and East African audiences, reflecting the growing cultural exchange between both regions. His blend of soulful rhythms makes him a perfect fit for Lagos’ festive energy. Tickets for the show will be available through Livespot’s official platforms.
