“Tanzania wanapenda umbea which is nice but sometimes musilazimishe vitu when you don’t know the full story na don’t make things kukua so big when you don’t even know what it is.

“Hapa hapo kwenye summery ilikua video shoot, sing’ang’anii Diamond, sitaki kurudiana na Diamond. Tangu niachane na Diamond walai bilai sijawai kurudia nyuma not even for a kiss not even for… nakwama tu hapo kwenyewe hug nini that’s it. Sijawai na nasema tena siwezi kurudiana na Diamond.

“Unajua kwa nini? It is like reading a book ama movie, unajua hio movie inaisha aje but you are still watching it, what is the point? Siwezi rudia kusoma kitabu na nishasoma na najua how it ends. Siwezi rudiana na Diamond,” Zari said.
