October 30, 2019, marked a significant day in the ongoing feud between Tanzanian musicians Ali Kiba and Diamond Platnumz.
Ali Kiba, the CEO of Kings Music Record Label, took to his Instagram account to address Diamond Platnumz directly, blasting him for acting like a child and accusing him of mistreating him behind the scenes.
"Usiniletee mambo ya darasa la Pili unaniiibia penseli alafu unanisaidia kutafuta.(UNIKOME) Mwanaume huwa anaongeaga mara moja tu sasa ukitaka nikuweke uchi watu wajue unayonifanyia," read his post in part.
Ali Kiba's post was in response to Diamond Platnumz's invitation for him to perform at the upcoming Wasafi Festival, which he declined due to the disrespect he felt.
"Hata kwenye hilo tamasha hatokuja mtu sasa tuishie hapo nakutakia tamasha njema," he added.
The feud between the two musicians has sparked a heated debate among their fans, with some calling for Ali Kiba to forgive Diamond Platnumz and others claiming his account has been hacked.
