The Wedding That Shook Lagos: Sophia Momodu Declares Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux’s Union the Event of the Year

In a dazzling celebration that has left Nigeria’s entertainment sphere buzzing, socialite and influencer Sophia Momodu has broken her silence following the viral Lagos wedding of actress and fashion entrepreneur Priscilla Ojo and Tanzanian music star Juma Jux. The grand affair, which took place last weekend, has been labeled by many as the most glamorous and talked-about wedding of 2025—and Sophia Momodu has now thrown her voice behind that claim with a bold, unfiltered declaration: “The wedding of the year 2025. Peroiodtt.”

The event, which saw an impressive guest list of dignitaries, media personalities, celebrities, and alumni of Big Brother Naija, was nothing short of cinematic. With white roses cascading down chandeliers and a romantic open-air setting that screamed luxury, the Priscilla-Jux wedding was a visual and emotional feast that captivated hearts, sparked conversations, and even ignited debates online. The white wedding ceremony, in particular, has dominated social feeds since Saturday evening, thanks to a flurry of photos, videos, and behind-the-scenes glimpses into the star-studded spectacle.

While Sophia Momodu is no stranger to the limelight, her attendance at the wedding did not go unnoticed—especially since her daughter, Imade, served as a bridesmaid, charming the crowd in a delicate white gown and flower crown. Sophia’s own entrance was the stuff of social media legend. Stepping out in an intricately beaded champagne dress that shimmered with every camera flash, she arrived with grace and glamor, captivating every lens and every eye in the venue.

Her post-wedding reflection on Instagram, featuring an image of the newlyweds—Priscilla in an elegant white gown with lace embellishments and a train that stretched like a royal veil, and Juma Jux in a crisply tailored white suit—has sparked both admiration and a whirlwind of commentary online. “The wedding of the year 2025. Peroiodtt,” Sophia wrote, accompanied by sparkling emojis and a string of hearts. That single post sent her fans, followers, and the wider internet into a frenzy.

Reactions rolled in almost instantly. Some hailed her for speaking the truth, while others speculated whether the declaration was a subtle jab at upcoming celebrity weddings—most notably that of her ex, Davido, who had earlier announced plans to wed longtime partner Chioma in August. One fan wrote, “Because Davido say he wedding with Chioma dey come up by August na. Truth be told dis is the wedding of the year. JP2025 was a blast I swear no mate.” Another, not mincing words, commented, “And the year is just starting, you don’t even have hope for yourself. SEE HEART PAIN.”

What set this wedding apart, however, was not just the glamour or the guest list—it was the unexpected pairing that turned heads and triggered speculation months before the official engagement. Many fans had followed Priscilla Ojo’s blossoming relationship with Juma Jux on social media, where the two regularly posted romantic snapshots from their travels, dinners, and joint brand campaigns. Still, few predicted the cross-continental romance would evolve into a wedding that would dominate headlines and send fashion critics, music lovers, and culture watchers into overdrive.

The ceremony itself was steeped in elegance and cultural symbolism. From the traditional Nigerian rites held the evening before to the Swahili-infused vows exchanged under a flower-adorned archway, every element of the celebration fused two cultures with an unmistakable air of sophistication and unity. Friends of the bride, including high-profile influencers and Nollywood darlings, formed an eye-catching bridal train that glittered in gowns designed by top African couturiers. Meanwhile, groomsmen from Tanzania brought their suave presence and music flair, blending Lagos heat with East African cool.
