Toke Makinwa, the media personality, has reflected on her tumultuous marriage and divorce during her birthday thanksgiving party.

Toke married Maje Ayida, her longtime partner, in 2014. However, their union was short-lived due to infidelity allegations in 2015, leading to their divorce in 2017.

During the event, the media personality thanked God for giving her the strength to withstand the challenges.

The 39-year-old OAP recounted feeling like she would “die” the day she ended her marriage. Toke also appreciated her friends for standing by her during that difficult period.

“Jesus you have comforted me when friends left me. Jesus you saw me through a divorce. When I thought I was going to die, when I did not know if I was going to wake up the next day, somehow you held me together. Even when I showed a frail faith, you knew I was not frail. Somehow you made me a tiger. You are the one that liveth. You are the one that will never fail,” she said.

“I thank God for all my friends here. I thank God that I am not looking out to look for you guys I am looking up. I have not been the best of fried for you guys but somehow you see something and I am grateful.”

There were rumours on social media that the media personality secretly married Farouk Umar. This was after a video of the duo sharing lovey-dovey moments went viral.

Toke, however, clarified that they are just friends. She added that “Farouk held me down when there was nobody”.

“On Obasanjo’s internet, they said I got married to this guy. This guy is my best friend o, listen, on Toke Makinwa’s internet, they said I married Farouk. Farouk my friend, ore mi.. this is my nigga and my friend, my brother, who wan marry you. Farouk held me down when there was nobody,” she said.

Actress Lolo says men are backing out of their responsibilities as providers

Nollywood actress Lolo has expressed her concerns about what she views as men backing out of their traditional role as providers in the family dynamic.

Speaking during the recent episode of the Say My Piece podcast, Lolo stated that gender roles have been in existence for as long as patriarchy itself has been, adding that evolving dynamics of relationships have started to cause a shift.

Lolo explained, “I blame the patriarchy because these things have been in existence long before now when gender roles were defined. Part of the things that men categorically say make them men or heads of their homes is the fact that they’re the providers. I have been hearing that since I was a child, the daddy is the provider while the mother is a nurturer.”

The actress questioned why many men seem to be distancing themselves from these expectations in today’s society, despite having clearly defined roles and responsibilities

She stressed, “Their forefathers are the ones who established the roles. Well, I don’t blame men now because roles are getting swapped now; we have she-men and all. But men are backing out of their responsibilities on a daily basis as providers.”

“Now I see a lot of men saying that women are too entitled and that women shouldn’t rely on them for everything. But when we ask men to swap roles, they still don’t want to do what we do. If you don’t want to be a provider, then be that nurturer at home.”
