Ksh 3.2M Jet Azimio paid to Fly Diamond to Nairobi
On Saturday, August 6, Tanzanian bongo star, Naseeb Abdul Juma alias Diamond Platnumz brought the Azimio la Umoja rally at Kasarani stadium into a frenzy with an electric performance.
The singer who has been in South Africa jetted into Nairobi earlier on Saturday, accompanied by his firstborn daughter Princess Tiffah.
The musician flew from Johannesburg, South Africa to Nairobi in a private jet, ZS-EXG for him to arrive on time for the performance.
During the performance he also drummed up support for the former Prime minister, saying that the country believes in him and he is the next President of Kenya.
The musician flew from Johannesburg, South Africa to Nairobi in a private jet, ZS-EXG for him to arrive on time for the performance.
On his social media, Diamond shared a video accompanied by his firstborn daughter Tiffah alighting from a plane.
The journey from Johannesburg to Nairobi takes about three and a half hours which would mean the musician had access to the jet for at least eight hours for the performance.
The typical rate to charter the jet is around Ksh402,500 per hour which would mean the coalition spent at least Ksh3.2 million to facilitate his movement from the South African capital to Nairobi.
The jet belongs to the Hawker 800XP series designed by a swiss aviation multinational, Execujet, which also has an office in South Africa.
Apart from the jet, Azimio provided a chopper that transferred the entertainer from JKIA to Kasarani Stadium for the rally. After the show, he and his entourage were transferred back to the airport by luxury vans provided by a local company.
According to his social profile, Diamond thrilled the crowd in a 15-minute performance before flying back to Johannesburg in time for his daughter, Tiffah Dangote’s birthday.
