Diamond Platnumz’s younger sister Esma Khan tied the knot on Thursday night at a private Islamic ceremony.
Esma is now the wife of Tanzanian talent manager Jembe One.
The event was attended by Diamond and Esma’s mother, Mama Dangote, Esma’s kids, and her close family members.
Speaking just minutes before the marriage ceremony, the groom said he was ready to have Esma as his wife.
“I am ready, I’m going into the Mosque right now for the marriage rites.”
A week before the wedding, Jembe described Esma as his destiny.
“Tulipoanza nilikuwa naona kama safari yetu itaenda kuwa ngumu sababu ya maneno niliyokuwa naletewa na wewe uliyokuwa ukiletewa😔Lakini tulipeana moyo na tukaweka imani tunaenda mwaka sasa”
“Namuomba Allah aendelee kutupa furaha, upendo na kumcha yeye wakati wote.Wewe ni mwanamke na nusu kwangu nakupenda,nakupenda na ntazidi kukupenda inshallah kifo kitutenganishe🙏.”
This is Esma Platnumz’s second marriage. She was married as a third wife to Tanzanian businessman Msizwa but their marriage only lasted months.
Speaking to the media after her failed first marriage, Esma said she had made the decision to get married without thinking it through.
“Labda nilikurupuka, nilikua na haraka. Sikujipa mda wa kufikiria je, ninayeolewa naye ni sahihi kwangu?” (I was in a hurry, I didn’t give myself time to reflect on the person I was getting married to.)
She added that the pandemic played a big part in it.
“Kipindi kile kilikua cha corona, stress na nini. Mtu akija unaona kama zali la mentali. Sitaki kurudia makosa niliyofanya kipindi hicho cha nyuma.”
(It was corona time and I was stressed, when he came, I thought I won a jackpot. I don’t want to make wrong decisions that I had made before.)
“Mimi ni mwanamke nahitaji kuolewa, nahitaji hesima yangu. Kidini, ndoa ni lazima.” (I am a woman who needs to get married, I need my respect back. Religiously, its a must for me to get married)
