WCB PROVIDE CLARIFICATION ABOUT
DIAMOND GUARD TO BE CLAIMED
ATTACKING THE JOURNALIST
From the management of Wasafi music label (WCB) owned by Bongo Fleva artist Diamond Platnumz they have released this information
EXPLANATION OF ALLEGATIONS OF ASSAULT
WCB Wasafi Label Management wishes to provide clarification to the public on the information being circulated regarding the personal bodyguard of Masani Nasibu Abdul Juma Issaack aka Diamond Platnumz. The bodyguard of the artist is linked to attacking the writer of Bongo Star Media TV after the Night Concert on 02/24/2024 in Zanzibar.
The management would like to inform the public that the information is not true and has the tendency to mislead and instill hatred. The truth of this matter is that the reporter crossed the limits of the law to get information by trying to force him to go and record the artists Diamond and Zuchu in the area of the hotel where journalists are not allowed to enter but only for the residents of the hotel. The security guard and his colleagues used methods that respect and protect the rights of journalists in preventing him.
Even the video that is being circulated does not show the reporter being attacked, it only shows him being restrained and then the video is interrupted and it appears that he is on the ground. Due to the number of journalists present, we believe that a video showing the journalist being attacked would not be missing. The way this event is spread and talked about leads us to believe that there are signs of wanting to defame the Director and Artist of the Wasafi label.
The management would like to inform you that despite Diamond Platnumz being a musician, he is also
a major investor in the information sector. And he has been working closely with all media stakeholders in the country. So not only him but even his assistants and his entire line recognizes, respects and protects the rights of journalists.
We call on the media to follow the boundaries of work and laws enacted in respect of dignity, privacy rights and humanity. Also avoid making false news that can bring hatred and harm the reputation, respect of the industry and the journalists themselves.
Also, the management would like to thank all the writers who participated in the success of the artist Zuchu's concert held at the beaches of Kendwa Rocks on the island of Zanzibar on 24.02.2024. The WCB Wasafi label appreciates the input of journalists and will continue to work with
all journalists closely and for the benefit of all parties. We appreciate your understanding and apologize for the inconvenience caused.

WCB WATOA UFAFANUZI KUHUSU
MLINZI WA DIAMOND KUDAIWA
KUMSHAMBULIA MWANDISHI WA HABARI
Kutoka kwenye uongozi wa lebo ya muziki ya Wasafi (WCB) inayomilikiwa na msanii wa Bongo Fleva Diamond Platnumz wametoa taarifa hii
UFAFANUZI WA TUHUMA ZA SHAMBULIZI
Menejimenti ya Lebo ya WCB Wasafi inapenda kutoa ufafanuzi kwa umma juu ya taarifa zinazosambazwa kuhusiana na mlinzi binafsi wa Msanii Nasibu Abdul Juma Issaack almaarufu kama Diamond Platnumz. Mlinzi wa msanii anahusishwa na kumshambulia mwandishi wa Bongo Star Media TV baada ya Tamasha Usiku wa tarehe 24/02/2024 kisiwani Zanzibar.
Menejimenti inapenda kuujulisha umma ya kuwa taarifa hizo sio za kweli na zenye miengo wa kupotosha na kupandikiza chuki. Ukweli wa jambo hili ni kwamba, mwandishi huyo alivuka mipaka ya sheria za kupata habari kwakujaribu kulazimisha kwenda kuwarekodi wasanii Diamond na Zuchu katika eneo la hoteli ambalo waandishi wa habari hawaruhusiwi kuingia bali kwa wakazi wa hoteli hiyo pekee. Mlinzi tajwa na wenzie walitumia njia zinazoheshimu na kulinda haki za waandishi wa habari katika kumzuia.
Hata video inayosambazwa haioneshi mwandishi huyo akishambuliwa, baii inaonesha tu akizuiliwa na kisha video kukatishwa na kuonekana yuko chini. Kutokana na wingi wa waandishi wa Habari waliokuwepo, tunaamini isingekosekana video inayoonesha mwandishi huyo akishambuliwa. Kwa jinsi tukio hili linavyosambazwa na kuongelewa inatupelekea kuamini kwamba kuna viashiria vya kutaka kumchafua Mkurugenzi na Msanii wa lebo ya Wasafi.
Menejimenti ingependa kuwataarifu ya kuwa licha ya Diamond Platnumz kuwa Mwanamuziki lakini pia ni
muwekezaji mkubwa katika sekta ya habari. Na amekuwa akifanya kazi kwa ukaribu na wadau wote wa habari nchini. Hivyo si yeye tu bali hata wasaidizi na safu yake nzima inatambua, inaheshimu na kulinda haki za waandishi wa habari.
Tunatoa wito kwa vyombo vya habari kufuata mipaka ya kazi na sheria zilizotungwa katika kuheshimu utu, haki za faragha na ubinadamu. Pia kuepuka kutengeneza habari za uongo ambazo zinaweza kuleta chuki na kudhuru sifa, heshima ya tasnia na wanahabari wenyewe.
Pia, menejimenti ingependa kuwashukuru waandishi wote walioshiriki katika kufanikisha tamasha la msanii Zuchu iliyofanyika katika fukwe za Kendwa Rocks Kisiwani Zanzibar tarehe 24.02.2024. Lebo ya WCB Wasafi inathamini mchango wa waandishi wa habari na itaendelea kufanya kazi na
waandishi wa habari wote kwa ukaribu na kwa manufaa ya pande zote. Tunashukuru kwa uelewa wenu na tunawaomba radhi kwa usumbufu uliotokea.
Imetolewa na:
UONGOZI WA LEBO YA WCB WASAFI".
