On a live Instagram chat with her fans, Zari Hassan, a protective mother, defended her children against cyberbullies from Tanzania.
During the chat, a fan from Tanzania told Zari to take 'their children back', prompting a fiery response from the mother of five.
"Mtu ananiambia tunataka watoto. Unawataka kama nani wewe umbwa? [Someone telling me they want back their children are they yours?]. Just let me be! We’re comfortable, living a good life. Mind your business and don’t make me insult you," she told the fan.
She added, "ATi rudisha watoto Bongo. Watoto wenu? [Bring back the kids to Tanzania, are they your children?]. When it comes to my kids I fight for them so shut up and mind your business."
As Zari and her ex-husband Diamond Platnumz have moved on with their lives, the singer is expecting his fourth child with a Kenyan woman, Tanasha Donna.
They recently held a baby shower in Dar es Salaam, which was attended by their close family members and friends.
