In a candid conversation that has sparked debates about modern relationships, media personality and Nollywood actress Toke Makinwa recently shared her willingness to embrace polygamy. On her podcast Toke Moments, the 40-year-old revealed that she would consider being a second, third, fourth, or even fifth wife if the right opportunity came along.
Makinwa reflected on the challenges of her current life, where independence and professional success often come with the burden of constant decision-making and leadership roles. “I am the boss everywhere, and that could be tiring,” she confessed. “You feel like you need someone to lean on. Someone that could decide what is for dinner. Must it be me?”
This revelation comes years after her first marriage to fitness expert Maje Ayida, which ended in 2017 following a highly publicized separation over alleged infidelity. Her openness about her personal life continues to invite conversations around traditional and modern dynamics in relationships, particularly in Nigeria.
Fans and critics alike are weighing in on her perspective, with some applauding her honesty and others questioning the implications of polygamy. As conversations continue, one thing remains clear: Toke Makinwa is unafraid to break societal norms and express her truth.
