Diamond’s estranged wife Zari Hassan will be flying to Nairobi. She is slated to attend a powerful meeting that brings together movers and shakers from East Africa.
A handful of celebs are lined up for The Founders Entrepreneurship Forum (TEFO) 2017. Zari, Betty Kyallo, Adelle Onyango are among them.
TEFO aims at bringing entrepreneurs together from all industries in the context of starting, running and growing a business.

Manufacturing dynamo Darshan Chandaria (Chandaria Industries Group CEO) and onetime Kenya’s richest man Vimal Shah are among high profile business leaders lined up to speak at TEFO.
TEFO 2017 will be held on 17th November in Nairobi. The agenda this year is to create a platform to engage, inspire and motivate young entrepreneurs towards sustainable growth for businesses.
Both Betty Kyallo and Zari Hassan are among keynote speakers at TEFO. This will be Zari’s first public appearance since the drama with Diamond.
Talk about an on and off relationship! For a minute there many thought that Zari Hassan and Diamond Platnumz story was done but this is not the case. The couple is still strong despite the many rumors claiming that they split after the Hamisa scandal that saw many online users talk.
Well, Zari has spoken for the first time to reveal that her relationship with Diamond Platnumz (the father of her two younger children) is still intact but unlike before the two are aiming at keeping their relationship off social media.
This comes a few weeks after she deleted all his pictures from her Instagram page and her children’s Instagram bio.

Speaking to a popular Tanzanian tabloid the lady justified her actions by saying;
“… I did wish him (a happy birthday) though not publicly via the Whatsup.We’re trying to take our personal life away from social media. And the more we trying to take it away from social media the more its reaction on social media but there is nothing like that everything is fine,”
According to Zari…they are still working together on all the projects they signed despite facing ‘normal’ relationship issues like everyone else. She concluded by saying;
“…There is a little bit of issue going on but there is nothing like that but we do understand the contract we have with Gmnetic company and we will continue to work as per our agreement so there is really nothing to worry about. I mean there is going to be all sorts of drama because we are two big celebrities but when it comes to endorsements we take them seriously because it is our work,”
It is a bit confusing to conclude where the two stand but since Zari Hassan says they are still together, then I guess that is what fans will go with.
Mother of 5, Zari Hassan is proving to be a lady who does not let her private matters affect her when it comes to making money. So far we all know that she is an independent woman who works hard for her money and even her baby daddy, Diamond Platnumz also knows it too.
After breaking up with the Tanzanian star, Zari Hassan has been trying to prove to her fans that things are just going as usual on her end and her latest posts have proved this.
The lady is believed to have closed a major deal with a Mercedes Benz company based in South Africa where she will now be playing the role of their brand ambassador due to her popularity in Africa but mostly in East Africa.
For the meeting she stepped out in a blue suit which she paired with a white shirt making her look like a boss lady ready to make millions. Her captions on the photos also indicate that the business meeting went on just fine and Zarina will now be smiling all the way to her ban account.
Diamond Platnumz safely handed in Kampala, Uganda ahead of a three-day carnival even as his wife Zari Hassan was missing in action.
Zari, who deleted all photos of Diamond from her social media accounts signalling the end of their relationship, revealed she had other engagements couldn’t make it to Kampala City Carnival. It was earlier reported that she would attend the carnival which Diamond will headline.
“Unfortunately I will not be attending the Kampala charity festival as advertised by some blogs due to personal commitments. Hope u enjoy,” Zari tweeted on Wednesday October 4th before she deleted Diamond’s photos.
The Kampala City Carnival is three-day event which kicks off this Friday October 6th. The carnival incorporates several events including a charity concert to raise money for the refurbishment of Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) primary schools.

The charity concert will be held at Kololo Independence grounds and Diamond Platnumz is the main act, several Ugandan artistes will also perform.
From the way Zari Hassan has been acting of late seems that her relationship with Diamond Platnumz is over for good and there might not be turning back.
The lady yesterday pulled down all Diamond Platnumz photos from her Instagram page confirming that things were over between her and the fella.
Her latest move today was pulling down his names from her children’s Instagram bio where she had earlier written “Zari and Diamond Platnmuz son and daughter” on the toddlers pages.
It is however early to know whether this is the end between the two as they have both had an on and off relationship for a while now. But since Diamond Platnumz cheated on her with Hamisa it could be the end.
Anyway below are screenshots of the new information Zari put on Nillan and Tiffah’s instagram page.

Call her bosslady or Zari Hassan but there is no stopping this Ugandan socialite who for the longest time now has been giving East Africans something to talk about.
Well the 35 year old mother of 5 has faced it all but what makes her special is the fact that she believes in herself and from what I hear, she is one hardworking lady.
Just a few hours ago the lady decided to add another photo that seems to be taking shots at those who have been discussing her after Diamond Platnumz played her with video vixen, Hamisa Mobetto.
The post which aims at showing off her perfect body left many drooling over her figure – as others tried to inquire what her secret is when it comes to have such an amazing figure. I however think this post was to remind her haters who have been comparing her with Hamisa Mobetto – who the boss is!
She is not afraid to admit that she is a mother of 5 kids who keep her going now and then…but she proud to have maintained her figure even after giving birth to the children back to back. She wrote saying;
Zari Hassan’s figure
Just gotta know when to be a mom, a business woman but most of all.. find time for yourself #TeamFitness
Now you can understand why Diamond Platnumz is still obsessed with this lady who never lets her personal issues get in the way of being somebody better each day.
Many understand that Zari Hassan has had a tough relationship with Diamond Platnumz where she has been embarrassed and judged by many for loving the Tanzanian singer.
Some of the things she has faced in the public eye have left many ladies saying that they would never stick around such a man but come on…this is just cheap talk as I know many ladies have faced worse experiences and are still with their men.
Zari Hassan
I have compiled a list of things as to why she is no different from most ladies including wives and girlfriends.
1.Committed:Just like Zari is committed to Diamond Platnumz this is the same way you find wives and girlfriends acting. They would never cheat or put their relationships in a compromising position despite knowing the fella is creeping with other women
2.Ignorant: Yes…they never pay attention to the small details showing why they should walk out of their relationship. To them – having a man by their side is more important than their happiness which is something we have seen in Zari.
3.Selfless: They are willing to sacrifice whatever they have just to make their men happy. In Zari’s case we have seen her fly in and out of South Africa to go see her man and despite having his family bad mouth her – she tries to stay friendly.

4.Hardworking: Since they expect nothing from their men, these women tend to work hard just to make sure their families don’t lack anything. This is the same thing that Zari Hassan does…even when dating a big star like Diamond she continues to work harder in her businesses to ensure her sons and daughter will never sleep hungry.
5.Family oriented: I must say this is just for the few women who value the worth of having a family. Just like Zari Hassan who knows her man cheated on her with Hamisa Mobetto…she is still with Diamond Platnumz for the sake of her children who need their father in their lives.
Hamisa Mobetto and Zari Hassan may not get along but these ladies have every reason to be thankful for their children who will one day end up schooling in the same school or even become friends when they are older.
Having been involved with Diamond Platnumz the two now have sons, Nilan Dangote and Abdul Naseeb who look like twins despite their age difference. The two boys also look like their father especially around the mouth area making it hard for one to tell the two apart.
I have however compiled a few photos of the boys to help you see how alike the two are. If you haven’t had the chance to compare the two babies then the photos below will help you see what I am talking about:

Zari Hassan is a smart woman who started off as a socialite when in her early 20’s. She however graduated to a singer after marrying her late ex husband Ivan Don who changed her life over night.
She instantly become famous and if you did not know she also happens to have a couple of music videos on instagram from back in the day. What’s more surprising is that she now looks younger than back in the day leaving me wondering whether she has been enhancing her looks.
Judging from the videos I came across there is no doubt that the mother of 5 has definitely had some work done on her and this is because she can afford the expensive surgeries that have been making her look like a 20 year old girl.
Anyway, below are a few photos I bumped into of the lady from back in 2012.
Zari Hassan might be hitting 35 years in a few weeks but the lass looks like a 20-something year old lady. This is because even with 5 kids, the lady has maintained the art of looking young and having fun whenever possible.
Right now we don’t know what fate has in store for her and her baby daddy Diamond Platnumz but this should not be an issue. Like they say, there are plenty more fish in the sea, meaning she can get the man she wants at any given time.
Diamond Platnumz, Zari Hassan, Harmonize with his girlfriend
I have compiled a list of Kenyan celebrities that seem to be the perfect fit for the lady who seems to have a soft spot for the fast life.
Prezzo : Just like Diamond Platnumz he enjoys the company of beautiful ladies here and there but all in all we have seen him appreciate his official girlfriends by posting lovey dovey photos on his gram. Pocket wise – well I guess he can take care of Zari’s needs since he runs the Makini empire!
Prezzo
Ringtone: This particular gospel singer has been looking for a wife for quite some time now and since he owns a couple of mansions and drives classy cars…then Ringtone can definitely also gives Zari Hassan the publicity she loves.
Ringtone’s Ranger Rover
Mustafa:Not sure where to begin but…Mustafa could be a good fit as he is a tall fella and one who doesn’t like take negative vibe from haters. Well, this is one thing the two share in common therefore it wouldn’t be hard for them to click – not forgetting their age difference which seems perfect.

Willy Paul:I hear he has been looking for the perfect woman to settle down with therefore if given a chance I bet controversial gospel singer Willy Paul would play the perfect boyfriend role for Zari Hassan. A young man like him definitely needs an ambitious woman who is ready to sweat for her own money instead of depending on the ‘little’ he makes from his career….not forgetting Willy Paul Msafi draws his inspiration from Diamond Platnumz, right?
Meanwhile while everyone is talking about Hamisa and Diamond Platnumz….seems that even Kenyan celebrities are also interested in the tea judging from Huddah’s post.
Through her gram stories the now business lady who is having the time of her life in South Africa wrote saying;
Huddah’s post
A man is yours when you are with him. When he is out he is ours! We share???
Well, without even asking we all know that this was definitely directed to Zari who once called her out for sleeping with Diamond Platnumz about 2 years ago.
However with all the efforts that Zari has been making to keep her man off other women skirts, the singer has proven to be one man who cannot be tamed.
Huddah’s post
Anyway, I guess this is the time the likes of Huddah will continue firing shots at Zari who is now facing a lot of issues with her relationship.
Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz has finally faced up to his mistakes while speaking to popular Tanzanian radio station, CloudsFM where he admitted to have had an affair with Hamisa Mobetto who is the mother of his 2 month old baby boy.
Hamisa Mobetto’s message
His confession however comes a few months after he publicly denied to have been involved with the video vixen he featured on Salome – one of the biggest hits he dropped about a year ago.
Speaking during the interview the young man says that he is sorry to have cheated on the mother of his children, Zari and goes on to blame the devil for the mistakes he made.
He also went on to apologize saying that he is still sorry and hopes Zari will forgive him as he is not planning to leave her for any other woman.
With all this said and done Zari has maintained her silence and hopefully she will speak about this issue as no one knows whether she will continue dating the young man.
Diamond dated Wema Sepetu before she dumped him. Wema was Zari’s biggest threat to her marriage until of course Hamisa Mobeto and Dillish Mathews came into the picture.
Wema and Zari have quarrelled and attacked each other on social media a zillion times. But their brawl in 2016 reveals something alarming.
In 2016, Zari took shots at Wema Sepetu in the DMs; she taunted her saying Diamond was all hers and sarcasitcally said she enjoyed whatever Wema was missing.
“Fake cars fake houses fake men fake everything but they r here to judge…yall look like u just had a fight with a tiger grrrrrr… we feel your pain Dee is a loving man. i know what u missing but guess wha i gat it all to myself. Sent to hell on a one way ticket buried 6ft under. #kasepa #HeIsHappyNow,” Zari message to Wema Sepetu read.
Wema responded by reminding Zari that she was the one who left Diamond and that she doesn’t miss him at all. She also said Diamond had several other women that she (Zari) shouldn’t be threatened by her.
Well, Wema’s warning came to haunt Zari in 2017. While she was still beefing with Hamisa Mobeto then came news about Diamond’s sexapade with Dillish Mathews in Zanzibar.
Initially it was Hamisa Mobeto who was giving Zari sleepless night. But right now Dillish Mathews is the demon that needs to be cast out of Zari’s marriage.
Diamond is rumored to have shagged 2013 Big Brother Africa winner Dillish Mathews during his recent vacation in Zanzibar island.
The two, Diamond and Dillish, were spotted together in Zanzibar having a nice time while Zari was away in South Africa with the kids.
News about Diamond and Dillish’s alleged sexapade in Zanzibar hit Zari’s marriage like Hurricane Harvey. The way Zari is reacting just shows she’s already had enough of her hubby’s dramas.
Well, Dillish seems not to be aware of what’s happening between Diamond and Zari. The Namibian entertainer has been seen enjoying Diamond and Patoranking new hit ‘Love you Die’ oblivious of the mess she caused.
Zari Hassan seems not to be bothered by what her husband is doing, she confirmed this in a recent post on social media.
The mother of five has had to deal with fresh allegations that her husband could be cheating on her with Namibian entertainer Dillish Mathews.
Initially Zari seemed to be hurt when picturers of Diamond enjoying his vacation in Zanzibar were shared online. (Diamond is said to have cheated on her when he was vacaying in Zanzibar).
Well, Zari no longer givers a damn. She told her fans on Instagram that she would fight for a million bucks but not a d**k. She further said that there were so many d**ks in the market just like there were many p***y available.
“Oh… U dming me to tell me how he cheated… So many d*** just like so many p***y on the market. Like y do pple think it’s all about fighting for d** honey i’ll fight for 1M NOT d**k. Closed a deal worth millions this week. 1st instalment 1st Nov,” Zari wrote in part.
Zari Hassan has transfered her frustrations with her husband to his official photographer whom he fell out with on Thursday September 14th.
The genesis of Zari’s frustrations is Diamond’s inability to keep his boner in pants, the Tanzanian singer is literally driving Zari crazy.
Diamond’s alleged romantic involvement with Hamisa Mobeto has been a bitter pill for Zari to swallow. As if that’s not enough, the ‘Zilipendwa’ hit maker has recently been rumored to have a fling with popular Namibian entertainer.
A week ago rumors ran rife that Diamond had gone on a vacation with 2013 Big Brother Africa winner Dillish Mathews. The two were spotted in Zanzibar while Zari was away with kids.
Diamond’s photographer – Kifesi shared a photo of his boss enjoying sunset in Zanzibar waters on his instagram handle, and Zari was quick to respond to him with ‘f**k you’ emojis.
Hamisa Mobeto is determined to ruin Zari and Diamond’s marriage but mama Tiffah won’t let her. The two have been embroiled in a fight since last year.
Mobeto’s beef with Zari started way back in early November 2016 when Zari discovered strange earrings in her house in Dar es Salaam.
Zari, who was away in South Africa, returned home in Tanzania only to find a pair of earring belonging to Hamisa in her bedroom.
Apparently Mobeto slept with Diamond at his house in Dar when Zari was away nursing pregnancy complications in South Africa.
A 2016 conversation between Zari and Hamisa has since been leaked online following recent development where Zari pretended not to know about her husband’s affair with Mobeto.
In the SnapChat conversation, Zari confronts Mobeto about the earrings she found in her house. She further warned Mobeto to stop sleeping with Diamond telling her that he would never leave his family for her.
Do the math, Hamisa Mobeto slept with Diamond in November 2016, and in August 2017 (exactly 9 months) she gave birth to a baby boy whom she named after Diamond Platnumz.
Below is the 2016 conversation between Zari and Mobeto:
The boss lady seems to have a lot money sleeping in the bank and for this reason she has now bought herself a new Mercedes Benz E 250 CDI estimated to cost Ksh 7.9 million.
Zari Hassan’s new car
She has however been trying to hide it from her social media pages but since she is among the top known celebrities in East Africa the lady shared a glimpse of her new ride through her social media page (Snapchat) leaving many assuming that she is now taking advantage of the late Ivan Don’s money.
Looking at her the photos of the new ride their is no doubt that Zari wants to roll like a boss and despite the issues she is now facing with Diamond Platnumz and Hamisa Mobetto her life has to keep moving on.
Word around social media is that Diamond Platnumz bought his first baby mama Zari Hassan a new engagement meaning that this was the second he got on his knees to ask for hand in marriage.
Zari’s ring
As expected, Zari Hassan shared a photo and videos of the ring on her social media pages flaunting the ‘diamonds’ on her latest accessory giving many a reason to talk.
Judging from her lifestyle and that of Diamond Platnumz, many thought that the ring could have cost millions of money but a new picture making rounds online says something totally different.
The ring has been estimated to cost $9 which is equivalent Ksh 900. Checkout the photo below;
Zari’s mother Halima Hassan passed on in the morning of July 20th at Nakasero Hospital in Kampala where she had been hospitalized for close to three weeks.
The deceased succumbed to diabetes after a long battle with the chronic disease. She was buried a day after her death in accordance with Islamic burial rituals.
Yesterday August 29th marked 40 days since Halima Hassan passed on. A celebration is usually held on the deceased’s 40th day as this is believed to be the day he/she ascends into heaven, according to most religions.
Zari and her sister Asha celebrated their mother in emotional posts to mark 40th day after her death. The two expressed the pain they were still feeling for losing their mother.
Zari and her sister Asha
“My Angel today marks 40days since your gone. But always in our hearts?❤️❤️. R.I.P. Bibi ???????? I will say it like Princess Sonia say. INVISIBLE BIBI.??” Asha wrote.
“She is at peace…. miss her sana. It’s so sad.. one min your here the next your gone???….” Wrote Zari Hassan.
If the kitchen is too hot to have two women in it then I guess one has to leave – but in Diamond Platnumz case both his women are not willing to step down.
After Hamisa Mobetto revealed that her son’s father is Diamond Platnumz…there has been a lot of name calling from the Tanzanian singer and to even make it worse he now trolls her using his music, just like what he did after dumping Wema Sepetunga.
Anyway, Zari who had maintained her silence has finally opened up to throw shade Hamisa Mobetto’s way. Well, in the post Zari is seen singing along to along to Diamond Platnumz song Eneka but her caption is what caught my attention. Well she described her self as the real Eneka – which obviously meant that the other women are nothing but side dishes to her hubby. Checkout the video below;
Diamond Platnumz is set to officially exchange vows with Zari Hassan if the huge pricey gem on his baby mama’s finger is anything to go by.
The power celebrity couple has been shaken by Hamisa Mobeto’s shenanigans. The Tanzanian model-cum-video vixen sensationally claimed her son was fathered by Diamond, and she even went ahead and named her son after Diamond.
Hamisa’s malicious moves have sparked anxiety among Diamond’s fans as many people believe she is determined to ruin his marriage at all cost.
This is perhaps the reason why Diamond was quick to put a ring on Zari’s finger. Mama Tiffah was seen flaunting her expensive ring on social media with the caption reading ‘I love them huge…”
Businesswoman Zari Hassan has lately been a low profile on her social media, unlike before. Well, this is because her big boys are currently on holiday and just like any other mother, she has been spending a lot of time with her babies now that they only have one parent to depend on.
But despite keeping quite and minding her business, social media users will always find a way to irritate her. Surprisingly this time around Zari Hassan did not keep quite as she went ahead to bash Instagram Idlers who are spreading rumors about her youngest son, Nillan Dangote.
Apparently many have been claiming that Nillan is Ivan Ssemwanga’s son since they both have striking resemblance especially around the mouth area and their chubby cheeks.
However, Zari has brushed off these rumors through her social media pages where she came out strong saying Nillan is a 5 star baby and people should think twice before messing with him. She wrote saying;
Word making rounds on social media is that Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz is a father of many but so far he has only acknowledged two kids that is; Tiffah and Nilan Dangote.
His first born Tiffah Dangote turned 2 years on 6th August and unlike the first time – Tiffah did not have a big bash to mark her special day this time around.
However from her mum’s social media pages we have learnt that the little girl spent her special day in the company of her 4 brothers who have become fond of her.
The baby girl however got a special photo shoot session and from the new photos – it is clear to see that Tiffah is following in her mum’s footsteps.
Her parents on the other hand shared the special messages below as they celebrated their only princess. Zari wrote to say;
It’s princess’ world….happy birthday my one and only. My princess…may God see you through with nothing but the best. May you be blessed from this day forward. Most of all, may you be a Godly child. Without God we are nothing. Happy birthday @Princess_Tiffah
Diamond Platnumz on the other hand added to say;
Happy 3 years mama, words can’t express how much I love you my Tee.
Diabetes was the root cause of Halima Hassan’s death contrary to earlier reports that she succumbed to heart disease. Zari’s brother revealed how much it cost them to treat their mother before she finally died.
In his eulogy, Zari brother revealed that his mother was suffering from diabetes and that her pancreas had swollen as a result. He said the chronic disease was the cause of his mother’s death.
Zari’s brother also disclosed that their family spent 55 million Ugandan shillings or Kes 1.5 million in the treatment of their mother. He stated that his sister Zari contributed the bulk of the amount – 12 million UGX or Kes 346,334.
Zari’s brother addressing mourners during his mother’s burial
Meanwhile Zari’s sister Asha famously known as Ashutalal also opened up and said that her mother knew she was going to die thus requested to leave South Africa (where she was first admitted to hospital) for her native Uganda.
“When I used to live with my mom in South Africa but when she started getting sick she told me that she wanted to leave because she didn’t want to return to Uganda in a coffin. I think she felt that her time to leave this world had come and she wanted to go back to Uganda while she was alive,” Asha told mourners during her mother’s burial.
Family feud is another headache Zari Hassan will have to deal with despite the pain of losing her mother and her baby daddy in a span of two months.
After Ivan was buried sometimes in May, a committee of four members was formed to determine how his assets were to be managed. The committee agreed that Zari was to manage Ivan’s schools that include Brooklyn College in South Africa.
Ivan Ssemwanga died on May 25th 2017 at Steve Biko Hospital in Pretoria, South Africa
They also decided that Zari should live with the kids in one of Ivan’s houses in South Africa while the other house should be rented out to provide financial support to the family. The committee was to execute its duties until Ivan’s three children turn 18.
Well, Ivan’s family is on a mission to overrule the committee’s mandate and deliberation in the managing of Ivan’s property.
Zari Hassan with her sons who were fathered by Ivan Ssemwanga
Ugandan news outlet – BigEye reports that one of the late tycoon’s close relatives traveled to South Africa recently and has vowed to petition the South African authorities to claim his estate as the rightful heir.
Apparently Ivan’s schools and property in South Africa were registered under ownership of Ali Senyomo, an alias that Ivan Ssemwanga adopted and was using to conduct businessman in South Africa following his ban there.
It is this technicality that the said relative is hoping to exploit, even when it will expose the fraud committed by Ivan and risks the family losing the entire property.
