Tanzanian actress, model, and influencer Nasma Hassan, popularly known as Nana Dollz, has broken the silence with a defiant open letter addressing rumors of her alleged romantic involvement with a Kenyan politician.
The letter comes after days of speculations that have dominated online chatter. In her unapologetic response, she defends her character, and slams detractors for judging her without knowing the full story.
"This socialite has the right to love whoever she wants to love. And my relationship with whoever I'm with doesn't have to make sense to anyone except us coz we are adults and we know what we are doing," reads the letter in part.
The controversy erupted when Tanzanian blogger Mange Kimambi took to social media, unleashing a series of photos and screenshots that allegedly place Nana Dollz inside the home of Kasarani MP Ronald Karauri.
The images, which quickly spread online, appear to show Nana wearing the MP's clothes and posing both inside the residence and on its grounds, fueling speculation about their relationship.
Kimambi didn't stop at the visuals, she went further, alleging that Nana Dollz has a well-established pattern of pursuing affluent men for personal gain.
In her posts, Kimambi claimed that Nana has been pressuring the politician to bankroll her lavish lifestyle, including funding the completion of a mansion and even lobbying for a swimming pool to be added to the property.
The blogger painted Nana as a calculated figure, accusing her of employing manipulative strategies to secure financial support and luxury, all while disregarding the fallout for those caught in the crossfire.
On the other hand, Nana's letter takes aim at her critics, asserting her identity beyond the "socialite" label and refusing to be shamed for her personal choices.
"She's not just a socialite, she is smart, educated hardworking, kind, loving, God-fearing and loyal," she stated.
Her frustration was evident as she accused her critics of projecting their own flaws onto her, "Some of you are even worse in real life but so busy shaming good people," the letter reads.
