Diamond and King Kiba met on Sunday

Music sensation Diamond Platnumz’s manager Mkubwa Fella has finally broken his silence on the “Golden handshake” between the singer and his said longtime rival Bongo star Alikiba.

Fella who spoke to Tanzanian online radio Dizzim said that he was happy to see the two Kings of the Tanzania music industry finally shake hands after many years of people creating bad blood between them.

He added that the two artistes have never had any differences and that it was a blessing for Bongo Fleva music family.

“Naomba nirudie tena niseme kama ninavyosemaga siku zote watu hawa hawanaga matatizo wala ugomvi na hiyo ni Baraka kwa nchi yetu na muziki wetu wa Bongo Fleva. Cha msingi sisi tuombe dua watu waishi kwa usalama na Amani tusipende watu wachukiane wapende kugombana. Sawa ni biashara maana mashabiki wanapenda ushabiki lakini haina maana wasanii hawa wachukiane,”he said in a Swahili message that loosely translates to (I beg to repeat what I have always said that these people have no differences and it is a blessing to our country and the Bongo flava music. What we should do is to pray that people live in harmony and peace. It is business and fans like to cheer but there is no point for the artistes to hate one another)

Meeting

His sentiments came after Diamond and Alikiba met at the burial of late socialite Agnes Gerald Masogange where they shook hands and exchanged pleasantries.

Mkubwa Fella has been on the fore front championing for the unity of the two ‘rivals’ and at one point asked Diamond to reach out to Alikiba for a collabo promising to ensure it happens even if he might not live to see it happen.
