Kenyan socialite Bridget Achieng has opened up about being bullied for 25 years because of her bad teeth. Taking to social media, Achieng said she has undergone several procedures to fix her teeth. “Day and and night I prayed for a perfect smile, in my family we have dental problems and any baby who has dental procedure will tell you for free is not one shilling. And apart from money you have to have patience throughout the process and the sleepless nights ain’t a joke.
But I’m very happy that after 25 years of bullying, abuse online and offline, just because I’m a public figure, we are expected to be perfect in all areas of our lives. That I could afford and be prepared to take this journey and risk it all. I’m very proud of myself and I’m very sure that wherever my parents are, they are equally happy for me.”
The former Nairobi Diaries star also revealed she will be doing plastic surgery procedures to look beautiful, “We live in a generation where people hurt us and they don’t really know how deep it runs in our life, so far 3 procedures down one more to go, I’m looking forward to it.
Here i’m today, I want to fix myself in all areas of my life that I can fix. My story is that in due time and with patience you can do it all and have it all if you work hard towards it with just a little encouragement. Nobody should correct my grammar abeg, as long as you understand the message I’m still nursing my wounds
Ps: I live in Turkey where all the procedures you want to change how you look are made possible, I’m going for it all, image won’t be part of my problem in the near future you will be meeting beauty and brains #backtoback.”
