December 5, 2019, marked a day when Akothee, the renowned singer and self-proclaimed president of single mothers, shared her poignant story of survival and resilience.

According to Akothee, being a single parent is not a choice, but rather a circumstance that one is often forced into due to various life struggles.

Her words of wisdom came in response to a fan who reached out to her, detailing how his wife wanted to leave him. Akothee offered some sage advice, urging the wife to reconsider her decision and to organize her home before making any drastic moves.

However, Akothee also acknowledged that sometimes, a relationship can be toxic, and in such cases, it may be best to leave. She humorously warned the wife that if she were to leave, she should be prepared for the 'takatakas' of all kinds before she sees any light.

As Akothee shared her experience, it became clear that she has indeed been through a lot. Having escaped death three times, she has emerged stronger and more resilient than ever. Her story serves as a testament to the strength and courage of single mothers everywhere.
