The Life Of OJB Jezreel, His 3 Wives And 8 Children

Before his illness and miraculous recovery, Babatunde Okungbowa aka OJB Jezreel‘s family never came under the light. Sure, we were all aware he was legally married to three wives but other than his first wife Mabel, we never really knew who the others were or how many children they had for him.

NET investigations have revealed the music producer is blessed with eight children (yup, I guess we can all cut 2face Idibia some slack now). It was gathered that OJB is actively involved in the lives of his wives and children and they all seem happy with their husband.

The entire family was involved when he battled ill-health. And it was his eldest wife, Mabel, who eventually donated a kidney for the producer’s transplant.

 

OJB has three kids with his first wife Mabel, three with his second, Ama and two with his third, Korede. All three ladies have a deep background in music and entertainment. Check out their family photos below

WIFE NUMBER ONE: Mabel Okungbowa

During OJB’s illness, Mabel stood beside her ailing husband. She not only traveled along with him to India for a Kidney transplant medical operation but also donated one of her kidneys.

Mabel is fondly called Mama J by her husband and friends.

WIFE NUMBER TWO: June ‘Ama’ Okungbowa

June (better known as Ama) was once a promising Pop singer who had a few songs buzzing on TV back in 2003. Produced by OJB himself, the music maestro we learnt went on to marry Ama during that period.

The lady has slowed down on music, concentrating instead, on her three children – Denzel, Zion and Emmanuel. Ama is a graduate of the University of Lagos and once worked at Collectibles fashion store.

WIFE NUMBER THREE: Korede Okungbowa

She is fondly called ‘Kokomi’ by her husband. That’s also the name of her catering service.
