While appreciating the role that news and entertainment blogs play in society, the singer, who recently reconciled with her sister Cebbie, claimed that some of the outlets had turned to tarnish celebrities’ names.

“To All Kenyan bloggers, this is your last day posting rubbish about my brand, tarnishing my name for your own gain. You will be forced to pay a penalty of Sh 300 million if you post anything malicious about my brand. I don’t need you, you need my content, period.

She slammed certain bloggers, describing them as bitter people who sit behind keyboards chasing followers and clout in order to make a living. She claimed that many people will go to any length to obtain and create content, regardless of the consequences.

“All they want is comments, likes, and followers. Blogs are equally fighting for followers and to get endorsements, therefore they will use your name, and brand image to get insights to approach clients. Most Kenyan bloggers are beggars per se, poor at heart, bitter, and broke. They will ignore your good deeds, and your achievements and only look at how they can bring you down, it fulfills their emptiness,” she said.

Akothee has been in the news for both good and bad reasons, but the focus has mostly been on the negative aspects of her story and life.

Many of the criticisms and attacks directed at her revolve around her fashion sense, relationships, and parenting style, among other things.
