Toke Makinwa, a Nigerian media personality, has candidly shared the devastating impact of her ex-husband’s betrayal, revealing that he had impregnated his ex-girlfriend.
In a recent episode of her YouTube vlog series, Toke Moments, Makinwa courageously recounted her emotional journey and the heartbreak she endured.
“I believe that my career was the only stable aspect of my life. Everything else that was once familiar had crumbled. The world I had built had shattered. And the only thing I had left to rely on was my job,” Makinwa revealed, her voice filled with vulnerability.
She recalled a poignant moment during her radio show, The Morning Drive on Rhythm 93.7 FM, when the owner of the station expressed genuine concern for her well-being.
“People are discussing you; I don’t want to intrude, but there’s this fear that you might completely fall apart. Perhaps it’s best for you to go home,” he gently advised.
Despite the emotional turmoil she was experiencing, Makinwa, determined to deliver for her audience, made the decision to persevere.
“I learned early on to leave my emotions at the door and pick them up on my way back home. Once I step into the studio, it’s not about me. It’s about the millions of people striving to navigate their own lives. They are the ones tuning in, expecting to be entertained, informed, and kept up to date with the world,” Toke explained, reflecting her unwavering dedication.
