Deja Jackson is the only sister Karima has and they are actually twins if the information available about her is true. Deja is one of the lesser-known children of Ice Cube and she has very scanty details available about her life and career.

However, there are claims that she was born on February 17, 1994, the same day Karima was born. This suggests that they are twins but it seems Karima is the older one. Apart from Deja, Karima’s other siblings are Shareef Jackson, O’Shea Jackson Jr., and Darrell Jackson, all brothers. The older ones O’Shea and Darrel are the ones following their father’s footsteps in the entertainment industry.

The lovebirds work together in Karima Organize Change Inc. where Joines is a member. It is their dedication to noble causes that brought them together and they are known to support each other in their philanthropic endeavors.

The young couple made the news sometime in 2016 following an altercation with Newark Cemetry’s board member Warren Vincentz. Horatio actually punched Warren in the face after Karima reported her issue with the board while trying to carry out her Clean up Woodland Cemetry campaign in the city.

The matter was reported to the police as well and has now been resolved. Karima and Horatio are still going strong and wedding bells are expected from their corner any moment now. She is not an active user of any social media platform which makes it hard to follow up on her personal life and the same goes for her boyfriend but all things being equal, the two are a match made in heaven.
