‘I am not dating Julius Debrah’ - Salma Mumin debunk claims

The issue gained attention on social media in 2025 after Afia Schwarzenegger alleged that Salma was dating Julius Debrah.

The claims, which surfaced amid discussions about the Chief of Staff’s political prospects within the NDC, generated significant reactions online.

Afia Schwarzenegger, who is known for her outspoken commentary on social and political issues, also directed strong criticism at Julius Debrah while discussing the matter.

Her remarks subsequently sparked a wider conversation, with the alleged relationship becoming part of a broader political debate on social media.

Speaking on Joy Prime on September 11, 2026, during an interview with Nikki Samonas, Salma rejected the allegation, saying she has never met Julius Debrah or even encountered him before.

'I don't have a boyfriend' - Salma Mumin opens up about being single

“Recently, Afia Schwarzenegger came out mentioning the name of Julius Debrah as my boyfriend. I’ve never seen the man before, I’ve never met him before, I’ve never run into him anywhere in my entire life but I’m being tagged that I’m dating him,” she said.

Salma explained that such an allegation could have had serious consequences if she had been in a committed relationship with another person, particularly if she had been unable to publicly address the claim.

According to her, she previously preferred to remain silent whenever she faced allegations or criticism, believing that refusing to engage was the best way to handle such situations.

However, she said her willingness to now speak about the matter reflects a change in her confidence.

“Back then, I wouldn’t sit here to talk about it, but look at me talking about it and that’s how confident I have been. I still believe silence is not golden. I’ve debunked it, I’m not dating Julius Debrah. I’ve never seen him before,” Salma noted.

The actress acknowledged that her denial may not convince everyone, noting that some people could still choose to believe the allegations against her.

She nevertheless urged people facing similar claims to speak up and defend themselves, regardless of whether others ultimately accept their side of the story.
