Rwandan journalist Mwijaku has reached out to Nigerian artist Davido for help in resolving his dispute with Tanzanian musician Diamond Platnumz. Mwijaku was recently sued by Diamond Platnumz for allegedly making derogatory comments about him on social media. Diamond Platnumz is seeking $1 million in damages, which Mwijaku claims he cannot afford to pay. Mwijaku believes that Davido's close relationship with Diamond Platnumz could help him find a resolution to the issue.
According to Mwijaku, he sent a personal message to Davido asking for his assistance in resolving the dispute. He explained that Diamond Platnumz had taken him to court, demanding $1 million in damages, which he cannot afford. Mwijaku comes from a poor family and claims that no one in his family can help him pay the amount. He therefore appealed to Davido to help him find a way to resolve the issue amicably.
Mwijaku and Davido's connection lies in their shared presence in Tanzania, where Davido recently arrived with his wife, Chioma, as a guest of Diamond Platnumz. Mwijaku believes that Davido's influence and friendship with Diamond Platnumz could help him find a resolution to the dispute. He expressed his willingness to work with Davido to find a solution, assuring him that God will bless him and his family for his help.
The dispute between Mwijaku and Diamond Platnumz began when Mwijaku made comments about Diamond Platnumz's lavish lifestyle and questioned the authenticity of his wealth. Diamond Platnumz took offense to these comments and sued Mwijaku for defamation. Mwijaku claims that his comments were meant to criticize Diamond Platnumz's use of wealth as a means of self-promotion.
The $1 million damages sought by Diamond Platnumz is equivalent to approximately 2.5 billion Tanzanian shillings or 123 million Kenyan shillings. It is unclear whether Davido has received Mwijaku's message or if he will intervene to help resolve the dispute. Mwijaku remains hopeful that Davido's involvement will help him find a way to resolve the issue without having to pay the damages.
Mwijaku shared his message to Davido on Instagram on November 11, 2026, while Davido was in Tanzania. The message was made public as Mwijaku sought to bring attention to his plight. It is not known how Davido will respond to Mwijaku's appeal or if he will use his influence to help resolve the dispute.
The outcome of Mwijaku's appeal to Davido remains uncertain. However, Mwijaku's decision to seek Davido's help highlights the complexities of disputes between public figures and the role that influential individuals can play in resolving them. The situation will likely be closely watched by fans and followers of both Mwijaku and Diamond Platnumz.
