Ex-K24 News Anchor Ahmed Juma Bhalo & Wife Welcome a Bouncing Baby Girl ¶
Media personality Ahmed Juma Bhalo and his wife have welcomed a baby girl, Anayah Ahmed Juma Bhalo, after two years and seven months of marriage.
According to Bhalo's Instagram post, the baby girl was born on June 8th, 2021, at exactly 4:59 pm.
The couple's announcement attracted congratulatory messages from their fans and colleagues in the media industry, who were happy to welcome Bhalo to parenthood.
Among those who congratulated Bhalo were Jamal Gaddafi, Nasra Yusuf, Bruce Howai, Shiksha Arora, and Munira Baalawy, who wished the couple well and prayed for the baby's health and happiness.
It's worth noting that Bhalo and his wife tied the knot in a private Islamic wedding ceremony in November 2018, after being together for a long time.
At the time, Bhalo expressed his joy and gratitude, saying, 'This is among the dreams of every man. As you saw earlier, I was talking with tears almost dropping from my eyes. It is not that I am sad. They are tears of joy.'
He also shared a message of encouragement, saying, 'Mwanaume yeyote hii ni miongoni mwa ndoto ambazo ako nazo. Nina furaha sana. Kama ulivyoona hapo awali nilikuwa nazungumza lakini machozi yanataka kutoka na machozi yanatoka sio eti kwa sababu nasikitika, ni tears of joy.'
Looking back, Bhalo reflected on his journey, saying, 'Wengi walikuwa wakiniuliza na wapo hapa-Bhali utaoa lini, Bhalo utaoa lini. Lakini sasa leo nawaambia tayari nishaoa.'
He also shared a message of resilience, saying, 'Mimi nilifutwa kazi mara 2 na @K24Tv. Nimejifunza vitu 2: Kwanza, ukiajiriwa mahali usijisahau na kuchukulia kampuni kama ya babako. Hata kwa babako unaweza futwa. Pili, kuachishwa kazi sio mwisho wa maisha. Kaangu Shaffie kila la kheri.'
