A photo of footballer-cum-singer Rickman Manrick with a beautiful mysterious lady has been making rounds online after his separation from Sheilah Gashumba.

On 11th May 2024, Sheilah Gashumba ended her 4-year relationship with Derrick Ddungu, also known as Rickman, through a public statement.

Gashumba revealed how the decision was reached mutually after a series of reflections and consideration, and they were both to navigate the next chapter of their lives separately.

The news made a social media frenzy with netizens reacting differently to the breakup. It also didn’t take long before Rickman shared a photo of himself with an unidentified melanin queen.

To it, Rickman added the caption; “Nzanya mwenda.” The big question since has been about who she is. “Is she the Lil Stunner’s replacement? What does Rickman mean when he says “nzanya mwenda?”

Well, from the information we have gathered, her name is Jackeline Nafula. She is a Kenyan-Ugandan female boxing athlete from Gulu.

Is she dating Rickman? The answer is “Yes!” The two are a couple in the upcoming boxing film titled “Slum Bomber” where Rickman features as “sweetest” a boyfriend to Julie.

Wait, there is more!

The two will be seen swapping saliva in this action-packed boxing thriller. Yeah, brace yourselves.

Produced by Dialo Ssekidde and Directed by Maureen “Mona” Nankya, this UCC-funded blockbuster is scheduled to be in the theaters this September.
