Esma Platnumz, the sister of Tanzanian musician Diamond Platnumz, has found herself at the center of controversy after being accused of playing a role in the breakup of Tanasha and Diamond Platnumz.
Days after Mama Dangote sparked outrage for referring to Tanasha's son as 'Kichwa kikubwa' (big headed), Esma has come under fire for her alleged involvement in the breakup.
However, Esma has taken to social media to defend herself, stating that she has no time to waste on other people's relationships while her own marriage is failing.
‘People should understand that I don’t bother with other peoples relationships because my own marriage is on fire. So people think if they call me Judas I will change and be Peter? It can’t happen,' she said.
Esma's comments come as she faces backlash for her alleged role in the breakup of Tanasha and Diamond Platnumz. However, she has denied the allegations, stating that she is focused on her own marriage and family.
For those not aware, Esma's relationship with her baby daddy Petit Man has been on-and-off, with the couple breaking up at least three times before finally parting ways.
According to Esma, she is probably better off living on her own with her two children because men have proven difficult for her.
