On Tuesday, November 20, 2018, reports from Dubai said Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz drew attention after attending the 2018 One Africa Music Festival and later going shopping with his mother at a popular mall.
The pair were said to have been seen walking while holding each other in public, a gesture described in the source as contrary to Islamic religious beliefs. According to the report, police officers stepped in and reminded them about proper conduct while in Dubai.
Diamond Platnumz was also described as single at the time, following a messy split with his two baby mamas, Zari Hassan and Hamisa Mobeto.
The article was accompanied by photos showing the singer and his mother during the outing.
