Renowned media personality Toke Makinwa has opened up about her formative years, revealing that she devoted the entirety of her 20s to a single relationship.
Reflecting on her journey and the lessons it taught her, Makinwa shared her perspective during an appearance on Cocktails and Takeaways.
She admitted, “I don’t think I liked my twenties. I don’t think I knew what I was doing because I was in love with one man in my 20s. I spent my entire 20s following one man.”
While acknowledging the growth her experiences have afforded her, she expressed gratitude for how far she’s come. “If I could turn back the hand of time, I’m grateful that I’m where I am today because my experience has shaped me,” she said.
Makinwa also offered advice for younger individuals, urging them to prioritize self-discovery over early commitments.
“I tell young people that you have no business getting married in your early or mid-twenties. Figure yourself out. Know yourself first,” she emphasized.
