June 4, 2020, marked a day when Diamond Platnumz's child support issues came to the forefront, with several women speaking out about their experiences with the Tanzanian singer.
Hamisa Mobetto, the mother of Diamond's son Dylan, was the first to speak out, revealing that she had to take the singer to court to secure child support. Zari, Diamond's ex-lover, also shared her experience, stating that she stopped receiving help with the children after breaking up with Diamond in 2018.
However, it was Tanasha Donna Oketch, Diamond's current ex-lover, who publicly exposed the singer for neglecting his responsibilities. In an interview with Jalang'o, Tanasha revealed that she had not received any support from Diamond and had been doing it all on her own to raise their son.
When asked about Diamond's lack of support, Tanasha stated, 'I've been doing it all on my own to be honest. I'll be 100% real with you, I am real. I'm not going to say something that is not the case. With all the respect I have for him, I do not have bad blood with him and I don’t have any bad blood with him. But no he is not supporting and I am doing it on my own. And I don’t need his support to be honest, because I am raising my son just fine there is nothing that boy lacks in his life!'
Meanwhile, Diamond's mother, Mama Dangote, seemed to panic after Tanasha's revelation, posting a photo of her grandson Simba with a caption that read, 'SIMBA KAMA SIMBA LAKINI NASEEB @diamondplatnumz TOTO YA SANDRAH KIBOKO YAO…'
