Jub Jub undergoes surgery to remove belly fat

Posted on February 6, 2026

Uyajola 9/9 presenter Jub Jub is resorting to surgery to remove his belly fat, a battle that he says he’s done many other things to win.

Jub Jub, whose real name is Molemo Maarohanye, posted a video of himself at a clinic getting marked before surgery.

The post on Instagram is captioned: “…It’s been a rough couple of years with this here belly, I got time to maintain it, but I don’t have time to lose it. Even with this, I still gotta maintain a good diet plan…” 

While the doctor marks his belly, Jub Jub explains what he’s been through to try to lower the circumference of his waist.

“I’ve tried everything, amaOzempic, whatever injections… Mina ngithand’icheche, bafethu. (I like food, guys).”

“I like meat… being a black person… you can’t tell me to stay away from my meat,” says Jub Jub.

He looks down and, somewhat embarrassed, says: “Hey, I look six months pregnant, five months?”

He then asks the off-camera person accompanying him if he’s too scared to talk?

“Umkhaba u bad?” Jub Jub asks.

“I came here, I’ve seen this guy do magic…. watch this space. Ngaye bo ma one month, nje (Just give me about one month). Maybe two weeks,” he signs off the video.
