Today we will provide some updates on Usman and Kimberly
from this season of Before the 90 Days.
We will take a look at Usman’s relationship with his ex, Zara
and his current relationship status with Kimberly.
Usman “Sojaboy” first appeared on 90 day fiance
on season 4 of Before the 90 Days.
Back then, he met an older American woman named Lisa
when she traveled to meet him in Nigeria.
Usman and Lisa cоnsummated their relationship as soon as she arrived to Nigeria.
The couple had a lot of arguments during the trip
but at the end they got married regardless.
Usman and Lisa broke up shortly after the season finished airing, in August 2020.
Their marriage ultimately lasted less than a year.
Lisa addressed their breakup and accused the Nigerian rapper of “using” her
to become part of 90 day fiance in order to promote his music career.
Usman reportedly served her divorce papers in 2020,
but according to Lisa she’s still legally married to him in Nigeria,
despite the fact that she also got married to an American man in 2021.
Usman openly admitted that he was the one to apply to be on the show back when he was with Lisa,
but, according to Usman, Lisa also really wanted to be on the show,
so he alеged he was not scamming her to be on TV.
After breaking up with Lisa Usman started an online romance with an American Woman Zara
who appears to be closer in age to him than Lisa
or his current on-screen potential girlfriend.
Usman admitted that Zara was supposed to appear with him on the show
and she even had the contract with TLC for season 5 of Before the 90 days.
Alas, the relationship didn’t work out.
According to Usman, Zara couldn’t handle him having so many female fans
This led to Usman seeking out a new partner for the new season.
He chose his Superfan Kim who reached out to him on social media.
According to Usman, he selected Kimberly out of “millions of fans” who DM him.
The season with Usman and Kimberly was filmed in March 2021,
just months after SojaBoy broke up with Lisa, and started a relationship with Zara.
During the season, Kim traveled to Tanzania
to observe the shooting of Usman’s new music video
and to see if they can become an official couple.
Usman was shooting the music video for his song "Zara".
The music video was officially released recently.
Interestingly, Kim initially claimed she had no idea why Usman titled his song "Zara"
However, later apparently she learnt why Usman titled the song "Zara" and she was livid
In an interview to US Weekly Kim later said she knew very well that she was traveling to Tanzania as a fan,
and later as a potential girlfriend.
Kimberly said she also dated other people before going to meet Usman in real life.
Looking at Usman’s social media, Kim indeed appeared to be active on his page
since his first season premiered.
She was always among the first ones to like his posts.
It is strange therefore she didn’t see SojaBoy posting about Zara in August of 2020.
Back then he called her a "beautiful Angel" and named her "Queen Zara"
He also posted a video with Zara dancing to his song “fire”.
When it comes to their current relationship status,
It’s really difficult to believe that Usman and Kim’s relationship went anywhere at this point of the season.
95% of respondents on my Instagram poll voted
that they think Usman and Kim won’t be a couple.
During their season Kim really wanted to take her relationship with Usman to the next level and become physical,
while Usman resisted as he didn’t want to move too fast.
After the episode where Kim was questioning SojaBoy about his lack of intimаcy aired,
Kim received a lot of backlash on social media.
Kimberly addressed it in her stories, saying that episode put her in a negative light and she has no excuses.
She said however, that it is absolutely not okay to body shame her, as some people online did.
While on the show we are yet to see Usman develop feelings towards Kim,
it appears that now he does have a lot of love towards her.
In December of 2021 Usman gave an interview to Entertainment Tonight and admitted to being in love with Kimberly!
Usman implied in the interview that he’s not using American women for a green card,
implying that he would be able to obtain an O-1 visa for talented individuals based on his international recognition.
Interestingly, when Usman was asked as to when he’s coming to America,
the Nigerian star replied “soon”.
He also announced in 2021 that he will have a concert in the United States.
Speaking of his music, Usman claims he doesn’t use auto tune, but he uses a sweet voice technique.
Usman admitted that he indeed applied on the show because he loves being on TV.
He claims, that he has been on TV since his childhood.
Usman also confirmed that being on 90 day fiance had helped a great deal with his rapping career.
Kimberly herself said she’s reaping the benefits of her reality TV fame.
Kim and Usman appear to be friendly on social media.
The couple often tag each other on posts and comments.
Usman appeared to be close to Kim’s mom, who recently pаssed away,
having shared a loving tribute to her after her pаssing on his social media.
Kim confirmed in her interview to US weekly, that Usman and her mom would often FaceTime.
Interestingly, Kim claimed on the show that if Usman doesn’t become her boyfriend,
she wouldn’t see their friendship continuing
So, it’s either she changed her mind, or their relationship developed into a romance.
An argument for Kim and Usman being just friends is how he referred to her on social media.
Usman called her his “sis”, which fans deemed might be an indication they are not a couple.
Nonetheless, there are source who claim otherwise.
We previously covered reports from two different bloggers
that Usman and Kimberly are in fact filming for another season, which indicates they are indeed a couple.
Moreover, there were also rumors of a proposal
Kimberly publicly denied the rumors, saying she’s actually in San Diego right now and is not filming with Usman.
However, we can see Kim has nothing but positive things to say about Usman.
She said she doesn’t regret gifting him PS5 and MacBook Pro
and in fact when she gifted those,
her interaction with Usman was much longer than what we got to see on TV.
Kim even went as far as to call it her first date with Usman.
The American woman says she regrets nothing when it comes to her appearance on 90 day fiancé,
and she’s confident the main reason behind her and Usman’s TV appearance
is the fact that he wanted to share their story to the world.
While we know where the other couples from this season stand in terms of their relationship status,
Usman and Kimberly’s status still remains somewhat of a mystery.
However, it looks like a mountain of evidence is pointing towards the pair still going strong.
What do you think about Kimberly and Usman?
Do you believe their relationship is genuine?
