On numerous occassions, she has shared the many times she has been through hardships trying as hard as she can to take care of her kids, having baby daddies who are not willing to help out.
When she gave birth to her three daughters, she rented a two bedroom apartment in Shanzu and even took them to a good school, but their lives were not all perfect. Akothee lived a life based on sheer luck, because one day she could have money but might not have anything the next day.
She shared a photo of her second born daughter Rue, as she stood in front of her taxi, stating that she has worked so hard to give her kids a great life.
She wrote, "It was @rue.baby birthday 2008, that top and skirt was new, pliz don't come , and my taxi packed right infront of my apartment, I was paying monthly rent of 25,000ksh , 2 bedrooms just enough for me and my 3 eggs @rue.baby @veshashaillan @fancy_makadia , clarina Apartments in shanzu, if you stayed there between 2008 - 2009 then you can tell my story better with no salt, 😂😂😂😂 my children went to bahari parents which was a high standard school even though I had nothing, (niliishi maisha ya kubahatisha, pata leo kesho zero) 😂😂😂😂, so even if you see me thro big birthday bashes today , it's something that has been in my heart , to give my kids the best , that I dint receive, I will climb the highest mountains just for my kids not to go through what I went through .see you in @acaciapremierhotel 21st July."
