Jub Jub was thrilled to turn one year older. The Uyajola 9/9 TV presenter has reached 43 and reflected on his life and said that he’s had quite the journey. On his feed, Jub Jub said,

“Dam it’s been a good run man, what an incredible and amazing journey this has been. Thank you all JubNation for your wishes I ❤️ ya’ll, had to be in my birthday suit 🙏🏽”From making legendary hits like Ndikhokhele to spending several years in jail and then easily returning to the entertainment industry again, Jub Jub has proved that if something is meant to be, then it will be. His career took a turn in 2010 after he crashed into a group of school children after illegally drag racing in his Mini Cooper.

Four boys including Prince Mohube, Mlungisi Cwayi, Andile Mthombeni, and Phomello Masemola were killed in the crash, and two other boys, Frank Mlambo and Fumani Mushwana were left permanently brain-damaged, EWN reported. He was sentenced to 20 years which was reported to have been reduced to 10. He was released on parole in 2017.
