Diamond Platnumz is usually flanked by bodyguards everywhere he goes. But it turns out his security bubble is not impenetrable after all.
The Tanzanian singer nearly lost the expensive jewellery he usually dons following a breach in his security detail which was caught off-guard by a single intruder.
Diamond experienced a security lapse in Lubumbashi, DR Congo after a fan sneakily tried to grab his hand and attempted to pull the expensive jewellery off his body.
The Bongo singer was getting onto the stage when the fan managed to evade his security and jumped in front of him and attempted to mug him.
The Wasafi boss was rocking a dungaree, a green bandana and his signature collection of diamond rings, bracelets on his hand and necklaces.
However, Diamond’s security quickly sprung into action and quickly grabbed the fan and whisked the singer away to safety.
The ‘Mtasubiri’ hitmaker still managed to drop a thrilling performance in spite of the botched theft.
Diamond has been robbed of his jewellery before. During a past Wasafi Festival concerts in Tanzania a fan grabbed his necklace while he was greeting a crowd from his car’s window.
