Toke Makinwa Shocks Fans: “I’m Open to Being a Second, Third, or Even Fifth Wife”

Media Personality Sparks Conversation About Modern Relationships

Nigerian media personality and actress Toke Makinwa has sent shockwaves through social media after revealing she would consider becoming a second, third, fourth, or even fifth wife. The stunning admission came during the latest episode of her popular Toke Moments podcast.

The Candid Conversation That Started It All

During a heartfelt discussion with fashion designer Banke Kuku, the 40-year-old star questioned society’s expectations of independent women. “As independent women, do you think that we have glamourised this notion of being independent?” Makinwa asked, prompting Kuku to agree about the challenges of modern womanhood.

Makinwa then made her bombshell confession: “I won’t lie, Banke. Let me break it down. Forget the cameras. At this point in my life, if I have the opportunity to be the second, third, fourth or fifth wife, I will take it.”

The Exhaustion of Constant Independence

The media personality explained that despite her success, the burden of constant decision-making has become overwhelming. “I am the boss everywhere, and that could be tiring,” she revealed. “You feel like you need someone to lean on. Someone that could decide what is for dinner. Must it be me?”

Makinwa’s Relationship History

The revelation comes years after Makinwa’s high-profile divorce from fitness entrepreneur Maje Ayida in 2017. Their marriage, which began in 2014, ended amid a widely publicized scandal that made headlines across Nigeria.

This latest statement has sparked intense debate about modern relationships, polygamy, and the pressures faced by successful women in contemporary African society.
