If there is one person who wants 2020 to just end, it is Bridget Achieng.
She has gotten so much hate all over since the day she decided to hold an event during this pandemic time. That got many people talking including Muthoni The Drummer Queen who called promoters out for holding an event at this time.
Then the event went down and it had so much drama. A boy, Shanty, lost his life, Reekado Banks did not perform, Tanasha and Bridget had so much going on hence cancelling her attendance.
And when all this was happening, so many comments were being thrown her way. She even decided to make her account private. It hasn't been easy for her, a very toxic space to be in.
With all that, Bridget was forced to take to social media a long post.
"Long post alert: Ohh Lord went through comments and saw how people where bashing me especially women I feel like I have too much to say . Anybody who has followed my journey , it’s been a rough one . It’s been a depressing one . Not many people would understand what it is being a single mom , facing rejection , judgment etc . Nobody knows as a single mom you are full of regrets , bad days where you almost feel you hate your own child 😥😤😭 days when you wish you had somebody , just anybody who would take your son just for a day for you to breath , days when it’s hard to wake up, hard to even shower , hard to even remove make up before bed , hard to even enjoy your beautiful home and clothes , nobody knows the struggle of dealing with weight gain after a child birth especially when you taking drugs that make you add weight because of hormonal imbalance and the fight to put up a brave face . I have faced it all from my only left hope my mom , only parent left with dying only when my baby is a month old , out of surgery, and I have mouths to feed . "
But that has not stopped her from going on with life.
"But I keep fighting, I keep going, I feel the pain, I own the process, I fight on, I don’t seek approval from people who don’t know my journey . I keep the smile and cry whenever I have to, I drink silly when I want to, I smoke sheesha at home with my son there , it’s still ok, I get judged with women who don't have there shit together , they can barely be heard , use my name and lies to get fame soo sad , lying up n down, if they don't talk about me they wont be heard or be relevant . Sometimes I feel lost. Sometimes I get misunderstood, sometimes I doubt myself because it’s part of the process . But in the end it will all be worth it. In the end i know they will gather to listen to my success story . GOD ABOVE ALL, ALL IN ALL WE MOVE 🌟🌟🌟🌟 I’m coming for all they say I couldn't have watch this step, I won't accept anyone to bring me down , from far I come and it's far I'm going .. #cheerstothepaid #godovereverything #thechosen#wedontstop#wedontgiveup" Bridget added
So many people will not agree with a lot of what she has said, but clearly, she will not stop being her.
But during a live she had a few weeks ago, she said she has learned lessons and she will correct her mistakes.
There are little to no negative comments so maybe she is deleting them or maybe people are done trolling her.
