Singer Akothee has responded to claims by her younger sister that she is poor.
In an exposé by blogger Edgar Obare that made rounds on social media on Tuesday evening, Akothee’s younger sister Cebbie claimed that the singer is now poor and can’t even afford school fees for her kids.
Cebbie also accused Akothee of being a husband snatcher who has also dated politicians in the country.
But reacting to these claims, Akothee said she has done more than enough for her family members.
I have done more than enough for my family! I know some of them feel bad when they see me support people I don’t know, but the truth is, I get fulfilled when I help those that are in need and expect nothing,”she wrote on Instagram.
She also said that some of her relatives have been concentrating more on her finances after she started her foundation.

I am still a mother and I will always be that mother , my heart betrays me all the time, from one corner to the other , I have alot going on in my life , constantly , I AM left with family bills to clear, be it my mom ,dad ,grandparents. It’s always about “BENDE USEGOCHONE AKOTH” whatever it takes it’s all ME, One time a friend OF mine told me “Esther ,all this money you spend on your family ,please keep it for your children ,they will need it later ? that was Aunty Judi @judithleichum, But I don’t listen ?♂️?? When people wanted to own my life ,and jump onto my success,using Akothee foundation that is hardly a year old , with no sponsors or donors as away of hurting me! ??I had to put it on hold and concentrate on my life and my children! It hurts when you do things innocently and people feel entitled ??♂️, The only way to protect yourself from users is to say ” sorry I don’t have ” I HAVE DONE MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR MY FAMILY ! I KNOW SOME OF THEM FEEL BAD WHEN THEY SEE ME SUPPORT PEOPLE I DONT KNOW , BUT THE TRUTH IS ,I GET FULFILLED WHEN I HELP THOSE THAT ARE IN NEED AND EXPECT NOTHING. Since I stopped dishing out money and attending to family problems apart from my parents & grandparents, I am hardly loved . My family have no idea of my wealth nor my whereabouts, even if I die today , they have no idea of whom is handling my will / Bill’s. They are guests in my life. I respect and love my family very much and the only way to keep the relationship is to love them from a far since I have no option but to love them. I was in Karen hospital for 2 weeks. I I dint see any of my family members apart from my children ,friends, my employees , fans and my insurance company. This is enough for an intelligent person to understand. Thanks for alerting me Now I know my circle friends . Let me go back to fighting with my neighbor over land issues ,I will adress the nation on Thursday ?????? Stay calm and God bless you ??????
“People wanted to own my life and jump onto my success, using Akothee Foundation that is hardly a year old, with no sponsors or donors as a way of hurting me! I had to put it on hold and concentrate on my life and my children,” she said.
Akothee said that members of her family hated her because she stopped giving them cash.
She further said that her family did not know much about her and that if she died no-one would even know who will handle her will or bills.
“I respect and love my family very much and the only way to keep the relationship is to love them from a far since I have no option but to love them,” she said.
The mother of five also said that when she was admitted at Karen Hospital after she collapsed, only her children, friends, employees, fans and her insurance company paid her a visit.
