Dedeh Rosidah or better known as Mamah Dedeh (born 5 August 1951) is an Indonesian preacher and television celebrity and known as the host of a popular television series: Mama Dan Aa.
Personal life
Mamah Dedeh was born in Ciamis as the daughter of Sujai and Syarifuddin. At the age of 17, she was sent to Jakarta by her father to study Islam at the Universitas Islam Negeri Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta, despite her aspiration to become a painter. In 1994, the actor Benyamin Sueb asked her to do a radio program. It was at that time when she got the name "Mamah Dedeh" because she raised foster children. In 1970, she married Syarifuddin and has 4 children.
On 18 November 2020, Mamah Dedeh was tested positive for COVID-19.
Mama Dan Aa
