Nigerian media personality Toke Makinwa is gushing over her daughter.
Kemi Filani reported last month that the former OAP had welcomed her first child, a baby girl, named Yakira Eliana at 40.
Taking to the micro-blogging platform Twitter, now known as X, Toke bragged that her daughter is fine and not because she gave birth to her. She said she looked at her mini-me, and she is adorable.
“My pikin fine o, no be because na me born am o, I just looked at her and damnnnn, she is adorable”.
A few days back, 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.
After gracing the cover of Marie Claire magazine, Toke revealed that she had spent months afraid of what could go wrong, wanted to run away, and didn’t want to share her joy with the world, and then she remembered that the gift of the Lord makes so much riches without adding sorrow.
Recall that, Toke was once married to fitness expert, Maje Ayinde but the marriage crashed in 2016, after two years on the grounds of adultery.
Opening up on her failed marriage, she noted how she was blamed for her marriage failure even though her ex-husband fathered a child with another woman. She said people had different versions of what they thought her marriage was, which left her traumatized as she was the victim.
