Nelly Oaks who is singer Akothee’s manager has finally come out to talk about the singer’s health and why she passed out while performing during the Luo Festival in Kisumu.
According to Nelly Oaks, singer Akothee had not rested much after leaving Karen hospital where she had been hospitalized about two weeks ago.
Why Akothee passed out
Apparently Akothee went straight into rehearsals since she did not want to disappoint her fans during the Luo festival show. He went on to open up saying;
“She is in Kisumu still resting at the Acacia Hotel and trying to recover because she went into heavy activity just after checking out of the hospital and went straight into rehearsals she didn’t want to disappoint her fans,”
He went on to add that moving up and down during her performance left her exhausted and this is how she lost her breath and passed out.
“She had actually run her set for 45 minutes and it was during the last 30 seconds of the last song that the unfortunate incident happened. She had lost lots of breath because of the up and down activity. So that’s what forced her to faint but the good news is we got her to the car and we didn’t have to go all the way to the hospital because she recovered slowly and we gave her vitamins and juice and she was back to normal,”
As for now Akothee will continue with her bed rest until her doctors confirm she is ready to perform again.
She has been recommended bed rest and she is headed to her home in Rongo where she is going to rest for at least two weeks
