Drama as Akothee and poverty stricken Princess Julie almost exchange blows in Mombasa

Akothee was forced to throw former queen of Benga out of her house in Mombasa after she became rude to her to an extend that a fight almost erupted.

So many artists have tried to help Princess Julie come out of poverty but it seems the former queen of Benga is determined to live in penury.

Akothee is the latest musician who tried to rescue Princess Julie from the pangs of poverty but the ‘Dunia Mbaya’ hit maker decided to be VERY ungrateful and ridiculously rude.

In a lengthy post, Akothee revealed she invited Princess Julie to her Mombasa house where she was to discuss how she would help her get back in the industry.

Even before she travelled to Mombasa, Princess Julie demanded that Akothee clears her rent arrears and pay for her bus fare. She travelled with her son.

Drama ensued when Julie arrived at Akothee’s house in Mombasa; she didn’t want anyone to take photos of her and Akothee was cool with her decision; friction between the two songstresses started when Julie’s son took a photo of her mother and uploaded on Facebook.

A vexed Princess Julie uttered satirical words in Luo to scold Akothee;

“Stop posting my photos with Akothee on Facebook, people will see her with me and think she has given me million and there is nothing she has helped me with,” Akothee  recited Princess Julie’s word. (The words have been translated from Luo).

All hell broke loose when Akothee told Julie that she would be monitoring how she makes money with the sound system she was going to give her; Julie burst out in anger and rebuked Akothee.

Annoyed and disappointed by her action, Akothee decided to kick her out the following morning. She says she doesn’t regret her to decision to do so.

Below is Akothee narration of what transpired between her and Princess Julie:

WELL, am so hurt this morning following the constant harassment I get from media trying to know what transpired between me & the queen of Benga princess July , It’s with a big shock that the family is now taking advantage of the situation & trying to paint my image in a negative way , I really don’t know what they’re motive is , but from the bottom of my heart I regret why I even contacted her in the first place , I saw it on media that she needed help so I asked my younger sister to fetch for her no. , I even consulted one of my friends & this was her answer ” mama be careful with most fallen artists, the pride doesn’t leave them even though the fame & money is gone , help her from a distance but don’t bring her close to you , you might regreat ” but with the kind of a heart I have I wanted to hear her side of story , so I contacted her , & invited her to come for a holiday in my home in mombasa , through this I was able to gauge & see where I can start from with the help, I sent her money to go to the hair dresser buy a few clothes & the rest for transport, after the money was spent, the son & said that his mother cannot travell alone, therefore I have to send transport for 2 , secondly I have to send money for her rent because her rent was in areas , I did exactly that , then they arrived in mombasa safe & sound , I accommodated them for 5 days inside my house not even at the guest quarters, for I wanted her to feel like part & parcel of me , unfortunately I realised she was always running away from photos when we were at the pool or dinning , “I have a permanent photographer who takes photos of me with or without guests , for my own memories ” so I was wondering why , then the son Makajuli took a photo with his phone while we were dinning & posted on his face book page ! ” the mother , princess July became sooooooo mad & asked him to bring the photo down this were her words “wek keto pichana gi Akothee e Facebook, Ji biro Nena kode to weni osemiya milionde to onge kata gima osekonyago!!!!!” I stopped eating & took a deep breath, this was day 3 of our dinning , then on the 4th day , I asked her what she would like me to do for her.

She said she needed a house soundsystem & a collabo with me for her come back , I din’t mind the three things she mentioned , I believe everyone has a dream , so I told her we better start small , I have sound system already I will hand it over to her but will also be part of monitoring how she makes money with it till she is stable ,then we can start with the house, she stood up with pride & beat her chest for me , that ” do you know who I am , I am princess July, she was on top of her voice that my kids came running down stairs in a shock thinking we had a fight , the son who is now coming up with stories so my anger , yes I am a human being , I became so maaad, disappointed etc, I could not stand seeing them both in my house, the night was so long that I could not wait for morning to come so I release my guests , with disappointments! I heard the son opening my bedroom door
