Akothee Safaris CEO Akothee on March 12, 2021, disclosed that her mother Monica Yunita Kokeyo was openly displeased with her decision to split from her ex-husband Jared Okello.

Opening up about the separation on her Instagram account, Akothee narrated that it took time, and a lot of convincing, for Monica to accept that her marriage to Okello was over. “My parents give me strength, they are proud to see me happy.

She could not allow me to introduce her to any [other] man,” wrote Akothee.
