Actress and TV host, Toke Makinwa
Media personality Toke Makinwa has dispelled the notion that she’s anti-men, describing herself as a “hopeless romantic”.
In an interview on her podcast, Toke revealed that she’s been misunderstood by the people who believe she bash men.
Toke shared a personal milestone, disclosing that she had prayed to become a mother before turning 40.
She said her prayer was answered when she got pregnant in December, shortly after her birthday in November, expressing gratitude to God and acknowledging that His timing is perfect.
“The popular belief out there is that I bash men, I hate men. It’s never been the truth. I’m a hopeless romantic. People did not know that I was depressed. Till now people did not know why I did that thanks giving service and I’ve never talked about it till this moment. At the start I told God I want to turn 40 a mum. I turned 40 in November and He did it December. He didn’t fail. God is never late. He just didn’t do it the way I thought it was gonna happen…”, she said. (The Nation)
