Tanzanian artists Diamond Platnumz and Juma Jux nearly suffocated to death after being stuck in a lift.
The artists were in the company of a video Director Fole X as well as their security personnel. It’s however not clear how long they were stuck in the lift.
In a video that was shared on Diamond’s Instagram account, the crew could be heard complaining of excessive heat. They were also left in darkness after a while.
“Siku ya leo mimi, Juma Jux na wenzetu kadhaa tumenusurika kifo kwenye lifti,” Diamond captioned the video.
He went ahead to call upon those with storey buildings to maintain their properties to avoid a similar occurrence in future.
“Ndugu zangu wenye majengo marefu yenye kutumia lifti tujitahidi kuzifanyia services hizi lifti zetu ili kuepusha madhara,” he added.
