SHOCKING! Here Is How Diamond Platnumz,Vera Sidika And Prezzo Dramatically Escaped A Nairobi City Afternoon Car Chase Involving City Council And Police Vans,Guns And Dangerous Driving. Wow!

Last Saturday,at around 12.15pm,a fussy Diamond Platnumz,Tanzania’s biggest pop act,was seated at a corner of a popular,upscale restaurant along Kimathi Street. He was flanked by his friend Biggy Hassan,two bodyguards and his make up artist Tanashi. Diamond had been waiting for Kenya’s premier Reality Show Princess,Vera Sidika. To come along with Vera was His Rapcellency Prezzo who will be remembered for causing a television foofaraw a couple weeks ago.

Ensconced at a corner of the classy restaurant,chowing away on some chicken breasts,Diamond was talking in a hushed tone to his entourage when Vera walked in. She was alone… And was carrying a huge purple Louis Vuitton bag,her buoyant hair bouncing away as she shashyed her way towards the smiling Bongo King.

Diamond was in a hurry,it appeared as he quickly arose,gave Vera a warm hug and pulled a chair for her. She smiled and sank into the chair,Biggy Hassan saying something about her butt and they all laughed.

One of Diamond’s security guys was seen walking towards the counter to probably make some payments or something. And soon after,a waitress walked over to Diamond’s table with something that looked like packed meat pies or chicken. Diamond didn’t look up. He mostly stayed on his phone,avoiding the public as people had now started realizing who these people were. He actually pulled the Tiffah-emblazoned hoodie he was wearing over his head,whispering something to Vera.

Not long after that,Prezzo walked in. He wasn’t as uproarious as he always is. He had a rather toned down countenance,politely saying hi to some chatty girls who had noticed him and removing his earphones to hear what they were saying to him. Quickly,he scanned across the room and saw the table where Vera and company sat. Actually,Vera waved at him and then he walked over.

Just then,Diamond and Vera got up,exchanged pleasantries with him and one of Diamond’s security pulled a chair for Prezzo. But he was late. There was no time to sit. They were all enroute to a secret video shoot sponsored by one of the leading Telecommunications companies in Kenya for a song that Prezzo and Diamond had both secretly recorded. A waitress came over,handed the crew what seemed to be money folded into a bill and politely walked away. Hassan took the money and they all arose and left the restaurant.

Outside,Prezzo’s car had been clamped by the City Council. He had showed up in a shimmering blue BMW X6 and had double packed it outside Nation Center. Vera,who drives a Range Rover Sport,had used a Uber to get to town. And Diamond had packed two of his ritzy cars somewhere beside Jamia Mall.

Exasperated,Prezzo descended into a meltdown. He cursed and yanked his earphones off his ears,removed his Gucci sunglasses and frantically tried to find the guys who had clamped his car. He hollered at some ladies dressed in the traditional Yellow Aprons to come over,the ladies came,gave him little audience and then told him that he’d have to wait until the chaps who had clamped his car showed up. At this point,Prezzo went ballistic,launching into a expletive-filled rant,cursing and swearing,kicking the ground angrily and getting his phone out to make an urgent call.

Vera seemed out of place. She was at a loss over how to react and what to do. She was to ride with Prezzo in his BMX X6 and Diamond and his crew had already left for their cars. Vera stood by,idly,confused over who to call and clearly pissed that she was standing in the sun on such a hot afternoon. People had started noticing them. And this was making Vera even more uncomfortable.

Intuitively,Vera wore her stunners,walked over to Prezzo to try and calm him down while at the same time trying to rebuff some guys who’d started forming around her and wanting to talk to her and take their pics.

Some ten minutes later,some two burly chaps appeared,they talked to Prezzo pretty fast,unbuttoned their shirts,folded their sleeves,got down to their knees and started unclamping Prezzo’s gleaming BMW.

 In less than 6 minutes,these guys,dressed in blue jeans and loose shirts,had already cut through the City Council clamp,pulled it aside,demolished it and freed Prezzo’s car. A crowd had built up by now. Quickly,Prezzo jumped into the car,Vera jumped into the front seat and the two guys quickly jumped in the back seat…One of the guys then jumped out of the car,collected the yellow clamp from the ground and threw it t the boot of Prezzo’s car.

Prezzo hooted loudly to ward off the crowd of onlookers,started the engine but before the could drive away,City Council guys showed up on a van that was driven and parked right behind him. Quickly,two City Council officials jumped out and ran to Prezzo’s car. Prezzo got his gun out and shot in the air,yelling ‘Fuck You! Fuck You!’. The crowd scampered for safety… Someone almost got knocked over by a car in the ensuing melee. And as the City Council officials attempted to reach Prezzo’s car and open it, one of Prezzo’s guys punched him in the face hard,sending him staggering back as Prezzo drove away in the speed of light,loudly blaring Tupac’s California Love.

There was traffic at around the Kenyatta Avenue Junction and Prezzo cut through it,snaking his way through the red lights and driving towards Tom Mboya Street like a maniac. He was hooting loudly and yelling at other motorists most of whom swerved their cars and yelled back at him as he cut his way towards Thika Road.

And in what had started to look like a scene out of a Quentin Tarantino Hollywood Blockbuster,the City Council guys jumped into their van,started it and decided to give Prezzo a chase. They drove like maniacs,too… Maneuvering their way through traffic to almost catch up with Prezzo’s BMW at around the EastMatt Supermarket along Tom Mboya Street. Driving through carelessly parked Githurai 44 mini buses,Prezzo was soon joining the Thika Superhighway.

Hooting like psychopaths,the Kanjo guys,who now numbered around 6,drove through the Tom Mboya gridlock too and gave a maddening chase of Prezzo. In no time,they almost caught up to him way past Ngara. Prezzo drove on… Hooting loudly and changing lanes with the speed of light. His guys with their heads craned out,bullying other motorists out of the way.

It was a like a scene straight from the second installation of the Kevin Hart Ride Along movie.

Avoiding Thika Road,Prezzo joined the Kiambu Road and sped his way like a deranged biker past Muthaiga. He had now lost the guys. He drove on… The first stop was Ridgeways Mall where,it appeared,was where the action was to be.

He swerved fast,joined the Ridgeways Mall entrance road and drove down,quickly parking next to a Black Subaru Outback. He jumped out the car,so did Vera and the other two guys who banged the door and hurried along into a club around the mall.

They were to meet up with Diamond in the club as Vera had been on the phone with Diamond all through. At the club’s entrance,they were met by a surprised Biggy Hassan who listened intently to their story of shocking escape,daredevilry and sheer bravado.

Vera then rushed back to the car to pick her handbag leaving Prezzo and his men standing around Nakumatt supermarket with Biggy Hassan.

But as Vera was locking the car door,she saw the same City Council van,followed by a blue Police Landrover,drive past the mall towards Kiambu.

Quickly,Vera alerted Prezzo and his boys who were now laughing with Hassan Biggy, Diamond’s boy.

Just then Diamond’s Mercedes GL SUV drove into the mall compound. But there was no time to waste… It was time for escape. Biggy rushed to Diamond’s car and alerted him of the situation, asked his driver to turn around and follow Prezzo’s car.

Biggy then jumped into the Mercedes SUV leaving Tanashi and two other guys to ride in the other car he’d come with.

Quickly,Prezzo jumped into his BMW and started off towards the gate. But at the gate,there was a little hitch as the security guy insisted on checking the cars before they left. It was soon over and Prezzo joined Kiambu Road,tearing down towards Muthaiga,with two other cars belonging to Diamond’s entourage following closely.

But as Prezzo neared the Muthaiga police station,they realized that an impromptu road block had been erected and all cars were being flagged down. What happened is,the City Council chaps had mistaken Prezzo and crew for hardened criminals who were fleeing the City after a robbery or heist and had reported their car and activities to Muthaiga Police.

And at the ad hoc Road Block,Prezzo knew his goose was cooked.

Their car was flagged down,so was the two other cars behind them with one of them,an ostentatious Mercedes SUV,belonging to and ferrying the biggest East African music luminary.

Interestingly,two officers walked towards Diamond’s Mercedes and ordered it open. Diamond was sitting at the back left,head buried in his phone,with huge Gold headphones draped over his head. A police officer tapped on him,nudging him and asking him ‘Kijana unaenda wapi?’

The other officer was talking to Diamond’s driver asking for his Driving License and other things. Diamond merely looked up and simply said, ‘Ongea na ule tafathari. Ndugu yangu…’

Just then,cops asked Diamond and his security to step off the car.

‘Iko search flani tunafanya… ‘

Prezzo had already parked at the side of the road. Traffic was building up. And one of the officers seemed to be making an urgent phone call.

Diamond declined to get out of the car,removing some card from his wallet and handing it over to the cop who scanned it,looked up at Diamond again, asked him something quick and his face lit up.

‘Tarus… Tarus… Ebu Kuja… ‘ the cop called his partner who hurried towards Diamond’s door.

Meanwhile,it was discovered that Prezzo was carrying a gun. A phone call was quickly made. And Vera was asked to step off the car. She declined. Rolling up the window and reclining her chair,exasperated.

‘Diamond Diamond!’ some college girls,driving in a green Mazda Demio right behind Diamond’s Mercedes started screaming,craning their heads out.

‘Hii ni Ile Diamond musician….?’ Tarus, the cop asked.

Diamond removed his sunglasses,waved at the girls and the whole traffic went berserk.

‘Pigia Inspector Koros! Pigia Koros saa hii!’ an order was made.

It’s 2.27pm. Outside Muthaiga Police.

Out of nowhere, Maina Kageni has come… Driving his famous Red Chevrolet that he quickly parks outside the police station. It’s about to get interesting.
