Nikita Kering announced she has turned 20, but KOT don't believe her

Kenyan songstress Nikita Chepchumba Kering, a child prodigy who has taken over the music industry by storm, has now turned 20.

Kering shot to fame in her early teens and has steadily risen to become one of Kenya's most formidable musical powerhouses.

The sultry singer, whose stirring voice and music has seen her become somewhat of a cult figure online, took to social media to celebrate her newest milestone - turning twenty.

This after she just walked away with the coveted ‘Female Video of the Year’ (for Ex) award at the 2022 Pulse Music Video Awards.

The 'Ex' hitmaker's foray into the awards world began much earlier when she won the same Pulse Music Video Award for ‘Best New Artist’ in 2018 before winning the ‘Best Female Artist’ at the Afrimma Awards just an year later.

Kering was born on February 26, 2002 to parents, Anne and Joseph Kering.

She went on to attend the Riara Springs Academy, Kilimani Junior Academy and Brookhouse International School where she graduated with a diploma in Business and Technology in Music.

Some people on Twitter have however rained on her parade and wondered whether Kering could be lying about her actual age, presumably going by her already full plate of achievements.

Well, it's Happy Birthday Nikita Kering, either way.

Happy birthday buy you ought to be older
