November 26, 2019, marked a special day for Diamond and Tanasha as they welcomed their newborn son, Naseeb Junior. The baby boy's birth coincided with his father's 40th day, a significant milestone in Islam.
As Muslims celebrate the 40th day after birth, the family decided to slaughter an animal to commemorate the occasion. This ceremony, known as Aqiqah, involves sacrificing one animal for a girl and two for a boy. The meat is then distributed to the poor and orphans.
According to Tanasha's mother, Mama Dangote, the family chose a weekday for the celebration because Diamond is usually busy touring different countries during the week.
“We picked on a weekday because that is when Diamond is available. During the weekdays, he is always busy on a tour to different countries so Tuesday worked best for him,” Mama Dangote said.
The family's preparations for the celebration are in full swing, with a big party planned for Naseeb Junior. The event promises to be a grand affair, with the family going all out to make it a memorable day.
