My monthly bill has reduced from Sh3.5 million to 1.5 million - Akothee says in Lupita ‘Sulwe’ interview

On February 20 singer Akothee and Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong’o held a joint Instagram live session to talk about the latter’s children’s book, Sulwe. Responding to fans questions during the livestream, Akothee revealed that the pandemic made her scale down her monthly expenses. According to the outspoken singer and philanthropist, she used to spend Sh3.5 million a month but she’s since cut back on her expenditure.

“The pandemic made me realize that I didn’t need so many people around me- I used to move around with almost 10 people. But during the lockdown period I realised that I didn’t need to leave my house as often and I also learned when how and why to spend money. My bill reduced from Sh3.5 million to 1.5 million a month. COVID toned me down,” said Akothee.
