Akothee had made the offer to her daughter after she emerged first runners up in the Miss Universe Kenya 2019 competitions. 

Rue Baby instead requested for a weekend getaway with her fellow models who had taken part in the Miss Universe 2019 competition as they had equally worked hard.

“Mama @akotheekenya I would love the Maldives yes. But to be honest I would love a weekend with these lovely ladies of mine because we all worked so hard. Please check your pocket and let me know that which you can manage with @akotheesafaris,” Rue Baby stated as quoted by SDE.

Akothee, however, said she could not afford to take the models for the holiday. She offered to have other companies come in so that they could help to arrange for the rest of the models to also go on a holiday.

“I can afford 5 and 2 of your best friends and 1 fan, they voted for you remember? @rue.baby. Can I have other companies cheer these beautiful girls up, and congratulate them tag them all? If you are in tourism and you are mentioned, let's support and motivate a girl, tag them all. Thanks,” Akothee replied.

Rue Baby is Akothee's second-born child out of her five children.
