Renowned Tanzanian singer Diamond Platnumz's mother mama Dangote took to her Instagram stories to share some throwback photos of Diamond and compared them with current pictures of his son Naseeb Junior.

She couldn't help but gush over their striking resemblance, captioning one of the photos by saying that baby Naseeb is a spitting image of Diamond Platnumz.

"Huyu ndie @diamondplatnumz 🦁".

To top it all the 'Zuwena' hit maker and his son had even made similar poses in the photos, clearly showing that indeed the apple does not fall so far from the tree.

Many netizens have echoed Mama Dangote's sentiment about the striking resemblance between her son and grandson. In fact, according to many, Diamond Platnumz's son with singer Tanasha Donna, baby Naseeb Junior, bears the closest resemblance to him among his four children.

In addition to their uncanny resemblance, the bond between the Wasafi Boss and baby Naseeb is further strengthened by the fact that they share the same birthday. This synchronicity adds an extra layer of specialness to their relationship.

It's worth noting that this year, out of all his four kids, Diamond Platnumz chose to publicly celebrate only Naseeb Junior's birthday, while not acknowledging the birthdays of his other children.

When the young one turned a year older few weeks ago, the 'Yatapita' hit maker took to his Instagram account and wrote:

"Sharing my Birthday with my Lastborn is the most beautiful and blessed thing I have ever imagined @naseeb.junior Papa loves you, King!🎂❤️ 👑".


Diamond Platnumz typically marks the birthdays of his children with Zari, namely Prince Nillan Dangote and Princess Tiffah Dangote. However, he chose not to do so this year.

Furthermore, he did not observe the birthday of baby Dylan Abdul Naseeb, his son with fashion icon Hamisa Mobetto. This is a consistent pattern, and the reasons behind it remain known only to Diamond Platnumz himself.
