Kenyan singer Esther Akoth alias Akothee’s dream has become a reality after walking down the aisle on her birthday. According to the self-proclaimed president of single mothers, getting married on her birthdate remained a wish ever since, and she finally made it through while celebrating her 40th birthday.

The invite-only grand wedding, which is currently happening at the Windsor Golf Hotel in Nairobi will witness Akothee and her man Dennis ‘Omosh’ Schweizer’s vows to love and to hold till death do them part.

The nuptials have attracted the who and who in the country, people who have had relationships with Akothee from way back. The dignitaries present have also been in some of her highlight moments in life.
