P Diddy Saga drags Diamond Platnumz, Lupita Nyong’o and Burna Boy into Internet and social media trolling

Social Media platforms in Kenya and Tanzania are going berserk with the current issue of Puff Daddy, known as P Diddy and the rapper’s alleged sex and human trafficking scandal in the United States.

In Tanzania, stories about the country’s bubblegum pop artist Naseeb Abdul, popularly known as Diamond Platnumz who is also reported to have visited P Diddy in 2021 are raising questions regarding what exactly could have transpired between the two.

A video clip making rounds online shows Diamond Platnumz saying they indeed went to P Diddy’s house.

“We went to Diddy; it was the day before America’s independence anniversary. We did a lot of things but that cannot be posted,” stated Diamond, but it seems the video was recorded long before the outrage over Puff Daddy went viral.

Diamond’s Videographer Haji Lukamba Lukawise, says P. Diddy was impressed with the Tanzanian teen sensation describing Platnumz as the ‘Michael Jackson of Africa.’

Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, Puff Daddy and P. Diddy, is a rapper, in the United States, a record producer and record executive behind the Bad Boys Entertainment which he founded in 1993.

Diddy is believed to be very influential in the American Music and Showbiz industry, capable of empowering other artists to climb the charts, win awards and even become wealthy through their works.

As the lists of showbiz stars who have been mingling with P. Diddy continue to roll out, Kenya-born Movie star, Lupita Nyong’o currently based in the United States has also been found to be a regular patron of Puff Daddy’s orgies.

Burna Boy, the popular Nigerian artist who is said to have been assisted by P. Diddy in making an album which won him a Grammy is also a subject of series on online memes trying to insinuate what exactly could have taken place behind the scene between him and Combs.

Ali Kiba, another Tanzanian synthesized pop artist who once recorded with R. Kelly, another indicted American singer, claims that nothing weird occurred at Robert Kelly’s home when he and other artists went there.

Placed under arrest, P Diddy, formerly a big star, has suddenly turned into a global subject of accusations, ridicule and online jokes.

The lawyer representing the Star is Marc Agnifilo, who recently made a statement concerning the case, which led to a federal grand jury in New York indicting the 54-year-old Diddy.

The charges against Puff Daddy or Sean Combs include sex offenses and human trafficking for prostitution, with the indictment claiming he ‘abused, threatened, and coerced women and other artists around him to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct,’ things that have reportedly been going on for over 16 years now, since 2008.
