Toke Makinwa – ‘I dedicated my entire 20s to one man’
Toke Makinwa, the well-known media personality, recently opened up about dedicating her entire twenties to a single relationship, reflecting on her personal journey during a conversation on the Cocktails and Takeaways podcast.
Looking back, she admitted feeling unsatisfied with that phase of her life, acknowledging that it was a time when she lacked direction. However, she also recognized that the experience was a significant one, helping to shape who she is today.
Toke shared her thoughts:
“I didn’t really enjoy my twenties. I don’t think I knew what I was doing because I spent all those years focused on one man. I gave my entire 20s to following him.
“If I could go back, I wouldn’t change where I am now. I’m thankful for the lessons it taught me. But I always tell young people: don’t rush into marriage in your early or mid-twenties. Take time to figure yourself out and truly understand who you are first.”
