Speculations that AKA and Nadia Mukami were dating started making rounds in late 2021
when in one of
the episodes of his podcast Everybody Hates Nota podcast, Nota Baloyi hinted that
something was
going on between AKA and Nadia.

After months of keeping it low, Supamega and Nadia Nakai made their relationship
public
in February 2022 after AKA commented on Nadia Nakai’s Instagram post with a
heart-eyes emoji
and Nadia replied with a heart emoji.

Since going public, the two have not held back on their love with joint vacations and extreme

Since their relationship went public, the couple’s fans have had mixed reactions to this
hottest
relationship in town.

Besides their extreme PDA being a topic of debate, tweeps, especially those who still believe
that AKA
had something to do with Nellie Tembe’s death have not been very
kind to the couple
.

In late April 2022, AKA and Nadia Nakai issued a joint sentence where they both denied there
being physical
assault
and verbal abuse and sued a publication that had made a report alleging that
AKA had
allegedly hit Nadia Nakai during their trip to Accra, Ghana.

Despite the allegations and some of the hate that their relationship receives, AKA and Nadia
Nakai seem
to be ignoring them all and growing strong together.

woman
called Anele
“Nellie” Tembe
.

tenth floor
hotel where she was staying with AKA.

Her tragic death was very publicized and although AKA’s name was cleared by the police, not
everyone,
including Anele Tembe’s father, was convinced that the young woman took her own life.

Nadia Nakai had dated several high profile people before her current relationship with
AKA.
