It is the 41st birthday of media personality and actress Toke Makinwa, and she is celebrating it as a mother.
On her Instagram page, the media personality shared jaw-dropping photos of herself and her daughter in a red dress, urging her fans to say a prayer for her. Toke noted how it has been 365 days of mind-blowing grace.
She said she started manifesting 2025 to be the kind of year that would have her saying, ‘What a difference a year can make,’ and honestly, she can’t believe the difference between last year, when she was living it up in Spain, and now living her dreams.
Wishing herself a happy birthday, she noted how she is loved by God, a praise in the earth, and a testimony that the promises of God will surely come to pass.
“365 days of mind-blowing grace, I started manifesting 2025 to be the kind of year that’ll have me saying “what a difference a year can make”, I honestly cannot believe the difference between last year, living it up in Spain and now living in my dreams.
Happy birthday, Omotoke. You are loved by God, a praise in the earth. Your life is a testimony that the promises of God will surely come to pass.
It’s my first birthday as a Mom, y’all, say a prayer for me”.
While counting down to her birthday days back, she wrote a note to God, questioning how this had become her reality and how God heard every single prayer. She said that the greatest calling, the highest service, had led her to this very special moment every single season of her life, and she was grateful.
It is no longer news that in August the former OAP had welcomed her first child, a baby girl, named Yakira Eliana at 40.
On Sunday, November 2nd, the media personality and actress dedicated her nearly two-month-old daughter, Yaya, to God. The event had lots of public figures in attendance. The likes of billionaire wife Shade Okoya, Funke Akindele, Toyin Abraham, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu and wife, Mercy Eke, Ruth Kadiri, Mercy Aigbe, Priscilla Ojo, Eniola Badmus, Uche Montana, Brodashaggi, and more were at the event.
On her TikTok page, the proud mother shared a clip from the dedication, declaring it a day she’ll cherish forever.
In a note to her newborn, Toke noted how her daughter had changed her status and healed the broken heart she had carried since she was 8. Toke said she was already drowning in her big ol’ eyes and learning so much of her.
On her podcast, the former OAP broke down in tears as she reflected on her trials, revealing that she prayed to God that she wanted to turn 40 being a mum. She said that God answered her prayers as she got pregnant the next month after her 40th birthday.
