Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko’s daughter Salma Mbuvi is not happy with Tanzanian bongo superstar Diamond Platnumz.
Irked by Diamond’s recent behaviors where he posted indecent videos with his baby mama Hamisa Mobetto and a Caucasian woman in bed, Salma says he should have been arrested a year ago.
‘’Love how karma strikes people he should have been locked up 1 year nkt shameless man,’’ posted Salma.
Diamond was arrested on Monday over indecent footage that has since gone viral after he had posted it on his social media.
The Minister for Information, Culture, Arts and Sports, Dr Harrison Mwakyembe was brought to task over the artist’s actions which led to his arrest.
But contrary to earlier reports that the artist was arrested in his house, his manager Babu Tale refuted the claims stating that Diamond was summoned to Central Police post early Tuesday where he recorded a statement then arrested for contravening the decency law.
The police are probing the matter.
It is, however, not the first time that Diamond has been put on notice by the Tanzanian government over explicit videos.
13 songs including two of Diamond’s songs ‘Hallelujah’ and ‘Waka Waka’ were blacklisted by Tanzania Communications Regulatory Authority (TCRA) earlier in the year for violating the country’s norms and values.
