Tanzanian artist Diamond Platnumz left his fans in panic after announcing he was ill, begging for prayers yet  hours later, he was spotted all smiles, getting cosy with his estranged lover, Zuchu, while performing in Arusha.

Photos of the two on stage, with Zuchu dressed like a nurse, ignited mixed reactions, with fans wondering if Diamond was stable to perform. The Tanzanian artist caused concern among his global fan base when he requested their prayers. He disclosed that he had been admitted to a hospital in Arusha due to a severe fever.


"My day today started very badly in Arusha, with a high fever that led to temporary hospitalization. I thank God. I am doing well now, and I continue to gain strength. Do not stop praying for me. May I have more strength and do well on the Wasafi Festival Show," he said.

Diamond made a dramatic entrance at the Wasafi Festival in Arusha, arriving in an ambulance and donning a white ensemble from head to toe. He then joined his estranged partner Zuchu on stage, which left fans in a state of bewilderment.
