When you are looking for one of the most influential media personalities in Nigeria, you cannot ignore the svelte Toke Makinwa.
Armed with a strong media presence and media personality, Toke is no doubts living the life people only dream of.
When asked If she ever imagined being where she is today, the author said:” I can never get use to the feeling. To whom much is given, much is expected. I also feel God has been so faithful to me. I have never imagined myself where I am now, and I am also conscious of the fact that, it’s a life that have been given to me to impact the world and not for me. So we are all living on borrowed time; as long as you are living and breathing, it’s about what you can do, putting your name in the stars. We need to be humane”.
Speaking on the increase in the spate of domestic violence in the society, she said it is something we cannot stop talking about
Hear her:”Domestic violence is something we cannot stop talking about in our society. Thank God, today we now have bodies, organisations and even individuals, stepping out of their comfort zones to speak out against domestic violence. When people hear domestic violence, they automatically think it’s just about a man beating his wife.
“Domestic violence is something that both genders suffer, emotionally, financial violence, bullying violence and so on. So we need to understand that we have to respect ourselves and not go around hitting anyone. As a man, don’t go hit a woman, as a woman, don’t go hit a man. Let’s stop domestic violence in every form”.
