Akothee celebrates her 40th birthday
Kenyan musician and businesswoman Akothee celebrated her birthday recently, sharing posts of her 40th birthday celebration on her social media accounts.
She celebrated her birthday with beautiful gold-themed and yellow balloon decorations. The singer held her special occasion at Rock and Sea Resort, Watamu in the company of her family and friends.
Some of Akothee’s followers were not convinced by the fact that the singer was just four decades old. They claimed that the Akothee Safaris CEO lied about her age and is most likely to be older than 40.
This forced the mother of five to react to the comments and inquisitions stating that she didn’t care what netizens thought about her age or whatever age they allocated her.
She also added that her critics should base their arguments on their financial worth, implying that she is richer than them.
“There is someone busy arguing with my age. My friend use your bundles wisely or argue with your net worth my friend it's hard everywhere... give me that age that makes you feel better, 92 is also okay,” the singer wrote.
Akothee recognized for her altruism during the 2020 Diamond Special Recognition Award
Akothee’s age raised eyebrows since she allegedly turned 40 in 2020. Besides several controversies and limelight, the mother of five is popular for her good heart and her ability to always give a helping hand. During her birthday celebration in 2020, the singer decided to help the needy wearing smiles on their faces.
Akothee gave donations to Kenyans whose lives were heavily impacted by the pandemic, donating Ksh500,000 via her eponymous foundation. Her charitable journey started when she visited Turkana in 2018, gave out a helping aid when the residents were engulfed in starvation.
Her determination to better the lives of the less fortunate added to her popularity and in 2020, she was recognized for her altruism during the Diamond Special Recognition Award.
