Akothee, Kenya's wealthiest singer, has urged men to stop treating their women like pieces of rugs. The celebrated singer, who is a single mother of five, made the plea following the news that Jackline Mwende, a woman whose hands were chopped off by her ex-husband, is pregnant.
Akothee shared a post stating that if a woman finds another man who treats her like a queen, it doesn't mean she cheated. According to her, men should treat their wives well, appreciate them, and give them a listening ear to prevent them from seeking attention elsewhere.
In her post, Akothee wrote:
You treat your wife like a piece of rug, someone meets her & treat her like a queen, they start seeing each other & you call that cheating? my friend, you are an enemy of progress! love your wife, appreciate her, give her a listening ear, support her, take her out, hata kwa canteen for a soda, before someone else’s show her the new drink in town Mr Champagne, WOMEN APPRECIATE SMALL THINGS, I love you pals good night
Akothee's Message to Men ¶
Akothee's message comes after Jackline Mwende's story sparked controversy, with some people accusing her of cheating on her husband. However, Akothee sees nothing wrong with a woman leaving a man who harasses her to be with a better man.
