Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo recently threw a joyous welcome reception in Lagos for her daughter Priscilla Ojo, son‑in‑law Juma Jux and their newborn son, Rakeem Ayomide Mkambala. The gathering marked the family’s arrival in Nigeria after travels abroad.

Arrival and celebration

The family’s entry into Lagos was met with warmth and festivity. Videos shared by Iyabo Ojo on her Instagram page show the moment Priscilla, Juma Jux and baby Rakeem arrived at the home‑based celebration. The actress captioned one post: “Welcome to Nigeria #rakeem_mk”.

Friends and family were on hand for the welcome event, which featured music, dance and apparent surprise elements. One media report noted “traditional drummers, singing, and dancing” punctuated the homecoming.

About the family journey

Baby Rakeem, born in Canada in August 2025, is the first child of Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux.

His first visit to Nigeria, alongside his parents, is the latest milestone in their trans‑national family story.

The couple married earlier in the year, beginning with a ceremony in Tanzania and with subsequent celebrations planned for Nigeria.

What it means

For Iyabo Ojo the event represents more than a festive gathering. The actress has publicly expressed gratitude and pride in her family’s milestones, referring to Juma Jux affectionately as “my son” in earlier remarks.

The homecoming not only celebrates the arrival of baby Rakeem but also symbolises the blending of cultures and the expansion of the family’s legacy.
