Akothee opened up about the troubled childhood that saw her get married as an underage after dropping out of school.

The controversial singer got married to her first husband Jared Okello at the age of 14 when she was still a student.

She got her first baby at the age of 14, and by 17 she had already delivered four kids. Her son who was born in the streets of Awendo town died because she didn’t have money to take him to the hospital.

“I had only 3 children but I had dropped 4 in my 10 years of marriage, one passed on at 8 months. I didn’t have money to take him to the hospital early enough, or maybe it was God’s time,” Akothee revealed in a past post.

The mother of five recently opened up about how she frustrated her mother with cases of indiscipline during her childhood.

“I made a fool out of my mom, I made her a fool in Infront of her workmates, colleagues and the community. I ran away from school with all my belongings, I went to get married at 14. I was her Firstborn intelligent daughter. I was a stubborn rebellious child. My schoolmates from Nyabisawa Girls can tell you.

I loved dancing and I nicknamed myself Yondo sister. In my village, I was number one to go dancing. There was THUM OUTA that could not allow me to sleep. I would Escape even without eating. I was just a music lover and a dancer, nothing more. But trust me, the fundamental of Christianity and the upbringing my mom instilled in me is what has kept me who I am.

My mom was a no-nonsense mother, she still canes me until now, Mrs Kokeyo hapana tambua kitu. Can you imagine I still tremble to introduce my new lover to her, yeye anatambua tu baba Vesha,” Akothee wrote.

Akothee says mom took her to police

The controversial singer stated that her mother was so determined to see her pursue secondary education to completion.

She revealed that her mother took her to the police, gave her contraceptives after she gave birth to her firstborn all in a bid to get her to school.

However, Akothee still disappointed her mother as she got pregnant again with baby number two after she was taken back to school.

“My mom had so many hopes for me, I made her cry, humiliated her so much, and disappointed her sana sana. She took me to several police stations just to get me back to school. The first contraceptive I used were pills given to me by my mom after I gave birth to Vesha. She also felt the family I was going to settle for was not what she wanted. But AKOTHEE NI NANI TENA?

“She took me back to school in Asego Kanyada, Akoth na mba tena After term one.”
