Earlier on we reported that Bongo flava artist Diamond Platnumz' name was on the list of those named as drug traffickers by the country's investigators. We have have now established that this was not the case after talking to the artistes manager who clarified the matter to us.

Well, Diamond's manager in an interview with Mpasho, has come out to state that the list which has been making rounds online is fake.

‘Mimi ni manager wa Diamond, Harmonize, Ray Vanny, Rich Mavoko, Queen Darleen. Anything that has to do with the family, mimi siye msemaji wa familia’.  He went on to say that with all the accusations that are going on, none of his artists have been mentioned’.

Rumours doing the rounds in Kenya were that Tanzanian police had summoned and subsequently arrested some top acts over claims that they were in a position to assist in investigations as they 'partook' in drug-related activities.

Watch a video of the Dar es salaam Provincial Commissioner Paul Makonda reading out the list;

It's still unclear what is actually going on in Tanzania but it's probably a little hectic for artists right about now.

has now gone ahead and spoken to Diamond's manager who says he deals purely with the musical aspect of the bongo artist's life and that the 'fake' list was spread through social media.
