In a surprising turn of events, Mutesi Jolly, the former Miss Rwanda 2016, has publicly refuted claims of a romantic involvement with Tanzanian businessman Said Lugumi, attributing the rumors to a hack of her Instagram account. Despite her denials, hints of a past or ongoing affection have been evident for some time.
On this Friday, it appeared that Mutesi Jolly was in a blossoming relationship following interactions that suggested love was in the air. However, she stirred controversy by referring to some men as “dogs’ offspring” due to their irresponsibility and failure to fulfill their roles as men, which led to widespread backlash.
This statement has not only offended many but also raised significant questions, prompting Mutesi Jolly to challenge her critics with a poignant question, “If you’re not dogs, then why are you offended?”
After much speculation and anticipation, especially with the expectation that Mutesi Jolly would soon announce her engagement or marriage, as many former beauty queens have done, the narrative took a different turn. On Friday, numerous Rwandan social media followers were abuzz with news of Mutesi Jolly’s alleged relationship with Said Lugumi, a Tanzanian entrepreneur.
Without delay, Mutesi Jolly extinguished these rumors by stating that her Instagram had been compromised, and the messages proclaiming her love were not from her. This came after an Instagram post where Lugumi wrote, “Thank you for loving me,” to which Mutesi Jolly replied positively, suggesting well-being in their interaction.
She later took to X to clarify that the posts on Instagram were not true due to the hacking incident. However, in the past few weeks, Lugumi had commented on Mutesi’s photos with affectionate emojis, to which she responded similarly.
Among all who have shown interest in Mutesi Jolly on social media, it is Said Lugumi who stands out, even in comparison to others like the wife of Tom Close, known for their public friendship.
It’s often noted that when someone’s account is hacked, they quickly inform their followers or the hacker posts various contents. This could imply that the hacker might be someone close to Mutesi Jolly since no other malicious content or personal data breaches were reported.
However, the person accused of hacking Mutesi Jolly’s account is not a child, and Mutesi has vehemently requested that everyone who spread the news of her supposed relationship should retract it as it is untrue.
The relationship, if it exists, seems to be navigating through complex waters as Lugumi, with his busy schedule, only follows two significant accounts on social media: Mutesi Jolly and his business page where he has invested his wealth.
Said Lugumi is a well-known figure in Tanzania, owning Lugumi Enterprises, which specializes in forensic ICT services and corporate printing solutions. While the exact net worth of Said Lugumi remains undisclosed, as the head of a reputable and leading company, he is presumed to have substantial wealth.
This saga continues to unfold, leaving fans and followers guessing about the true nature of the relationship between Mutesi Jolly and Said Lugumi.
