Mzee Abdul Juma, the father of Tanzanian superstar Diamond Platnumz, has expressed deep pain over his son’s recent involvement in rumors linking him to a scandal involving American music mogul P Diddy.
In an exclusive interview with Mbengo TV, Mzee Abdul firmly denied the allegations, stating that Diamond, whose real name is Naseeb Abdul Juma, could never be involved in what he referred to as “dirty things like homosexuality.”
Reflecting on Diamond’s upbringing, Mzee Abdul shared how he raised his son to be hardworking and focused.
“Naseeb was always determined. Whatever goal he set, he worked until he achieved it,” he said, emphasizing Diamond’s strong character and dedication.
The controversy surrounding Diamond began when he was mentioned in connection with a viral scandal involving P Diddy.
Some social media users alleged inappropriate behavior between the two, with rumors speculating about Diamond being “sodomized” after he admitted to visiting the American singer in the U.S. and watching a movie with him.
These claims, Mzee Abdul said, are nothing more than fabrications designed to tarnish his son’s name.
“Binafsi ninavyomfahamu Naseeb, hawezi akafanya kitu kama hicho,” Mzee Abdul asserted, dismissing the rumors as the work of individuals who, in his words, “want to ruin his career and reputation.”
Mzee Abdul also opened up about his own experience with social media trolls, revealing that he, too, had been falsely reported as dead on several occasions.
He expressed frustration with those who spread lies for attention or financial gain.
“Nafsi yangu imeniuma sana… hawa watu wanatafuta tu namna ya kupata views na kupata pesa,” he lamented.
Despite the hurt, Mzee Abdul is confident that his son’s reputation will not be destroyed by these allegations, and he urged online users to stop fabricating damaging stories.
