Michael Collins Ajereh, the famous Nigerian record producer and music executive, aka Don Jazzy, has finally reacted to the rumours that he is secretly married with four children.

There have been speculations that the Mavin boss, not known to be in any romantic relationship, is secretly married with four children.

Reacting in a recent podcast interview with Fisayo Fosudo, Don Jazzy said the rumours were untrue.

He said, “A lot of people still think I’m married with four children but I’m hiding them.

“I don’t know why I will have children and decide just to be lying for years that I don’t have children. How do I want my children to even feel? Do I look like somebody that even wants to be hiding things?

“No, I don’t have any child, to the best of my knowledge.”

Don Jazzy said he has also heard ridiculous rumours that he is “gay and that why I’m not married. I have heard that I’m grooming young boys. People are mad [laughs].”

DAILY POST recalls that in 2021, Don Jazzy revealed that he got married to American model Michelle Jackson in 2003 at the age of 20, but they divorced two years after.
