January 10, 2020, marked a day when a Kenyan man took to social media to plead for help from his idol, Akothee. Brian Bileny's mother has been bedridden for three years after a severe accident left her incapacitated.
Brian's mother lost her job and memories following the accident, and her leg was severely broken, making it difficult for her to even use the bathroom normally.
Since the accident, Brian's life has been turned upside down. He dropped out of school and has been struggling to make ends meet, often going hungry and relying on neighbors for food.
Despite his struggles, Brian remains a huge fan of Akothee, who he believes can make a difference in his life and his mother's.
He wrote, 'I'm begging your single minute. My mom is always in bed for 3 years since she got a bad accident, she lost her job, she lost her memories, her leg got broke that makes her not to even be able to have a pee in a normal way.'
He added, 'Our life is only between us. The union to live together with Dad lasted since I was a young boy. Everything changed into a worse condition since she had the accident.'
Brian's plea for help has gone viral, with many people expressing sympathy for his situation. However, it remains to be seen if Akothee will respond to his plea.
