Akon, who is married to an Ethiopian wife a few years ago presented the gift to his mother-in-law during her 40th birthday celebrations.
The news came as a surprise to a majority of people in Ethiopia where there is no such habit (culture) of celebrating birthdays, let alone making such expensive birthday gifts.
Akon’s mother-in-law is living in Addis Ababa,and usually visits Akon and his wife, particularly when Akon’s wife gave birth a few months ago.
Akon, based in the United States got married to Rosina Bruck a few years ago, and they have a new baby- boy- born at the end of 2008.
Rosina is a designer, known for her best design clothes for famous musicians based in the USA.
