Controversial singer Esther Akoth alias Akothee’s manager has come out to explain an incident that happened over the weekend, leading to the singer collapsing while performing on stage.
On Saturday November 31, Akothee collapsed while performing at the Luo Festival in a suspected case of fatigue.
Speculations were swirling across social media that the singer was expectant, considering she had just been released from the hospital a few days before getting back on stage.
The manager, known as Nelly Oaks has refuted the rumours stating that the singer is not pregnant adding that she only collapsed due to pure fatigue.
