Aklinyi sounded a warning to artistes who squander their newfound wealth in their heyday. “Remember where you came from and your parents as well. If God blesses you, don’t squander your money with strangers or rather people who do not advise you to invest because when you go broke, they all run away and it is us, parents, who suffer, especially if you are sick just like my daughter’s case,” she said.

LADY MAUREEN HOSPITALIZED
