Bongo star Ali Kiba will pocket up to Sh9 million when he finally says “I do” to his girlfriend Amina Rikesh Khaleef from Mombasa.
The musician had kept information about his nuptials under wraps so as to respect his contract with Azam TV to exclusively air the events or sell to other outlets.
It is understood that in return, Kiba will pocket a rumoured sum of between Tsh100 million (Sh4.5 million) and Tsh200 million (Sh9 million).
The details of the weddings have remained scanty and when elaborating the need for sharing little information about the wedding, Ali Kiba’s team confirmed to a local media outlet that he had signed a contract with Tanzania’s leading broadcaster Azam TV for exclusive rights to cover his two wedding ceremonies.
“Sio kweli mzee sasa kama ‘bosi’ analipia harusi ili iwe aired kwa nini aifanye kuwa siri? Ukweli wa mambo ni kwamba yeye ndiye kapiga mkwanja mrefu hapa. Tunazungumzia mamilioni ya pesa na ndio maana kawa kimya na vitu vimefanywa kwa siri kubwa ili kuiheshimu ule mkataba unaoipea Azam all exclusive rights ya kuipeperusha,” the source disclosed.
Ali Kiba and Amina will have two weddings, a Swahili wedding in Mombasa today and another in Dar es Salaam next week, 26th April. The broadcaster will live stream both events.
