For the first time, Alikiba and Diamond will perform on the same day in Kenya
For the first time in the history of Bongo Fleva music, artists Alikiba and Diamond Platnumz will have their shows performed on the same day in Kenya.
The artists who have been known to have a long-standing feud will be performing on October 28.
Diamond will be performing in Nairobi at the Ngong Racecourse for the big October fest organized by the Tusker beer company.
At the same time, Alikiba will also be performing in Eldoret at the launch of the TLB entertainment club which will open on October 28.
However, unlike Diamond who has confirmed through his internet pages to attend and perform at the October fest, Alikiba has not confirmed his presence in Eldoret but on the TLB Lounge club’s Instagram page, they have posted a sign confirming that the Kings Music artist will be there.
This will be a special day for Kenyan Bongo Fleva fans who for a long time have also been arguing about the dominance of the two artists as to who should be officially crowned as the king of the music genre.
It remains to be seen which artist’s concert will overflow more, even though the concerts will be held in different cities separated by a distance of more than 300 kilometers.
Alikiba allegedly dated another girl
Long-time Bongo artist Fleva Alikiba is said to have found a new lover amidst the turmoil in his marriage with his Kenyan wife Amina Khelef.
Alikiba, who is not very talkative, uploaded a picture of the beauty and revealed her name while celebrating her birthday with cans and calling her ‘girlfriend’.
The beautiful Babi Sherrie is a video vixen and starred in the artist’s song So Hot.
But what surprised the netizens was the move of the artist to call her ‘girlfriend’, even though it is very rare for him to upload a picture of a young woman on his web pages.

“Babe Sherrie, happy birthday dear,” Alikiba wrote.
However, some fans went online and revealed that Alikiba had already awarded the beauty an IST-type car and he is attached to her.
After the photo stirred up heat on the internet, Alikiba deleted it and no other statement has come from his camp.
It will be remembered that Alikiba’s wife, Amina Khelef has been accusing the artist of what she claims has refused to set her free by giving her a divorce despite their love breaking up more than a year ago.
When Alikiba himself was asked about giving his wife a divorce, he said that the marriage is his and he has a solution to all the problems, but he also pointed out that it is a very small thing that cannot overcome him so much that he is told what to do by the fans.
