"divert about" is not a grammatically correct phrase.
The word "divert" means to change the direction or course of something, and "about" typically means surrounding or concerning something. It would make more sense to say "divert from" or "divert around," depending on the intended meaning. For example: - Please divert the conversation from the controversial topic. - The road was blocked, so we had to divert around it. If you want to use "about" in this context, you could say "divert attention from." For example: - The magician used a clever trick to divert the audience's attention from the real secret.
