Toke Makinwa Receives Marriage Proposals After Embracing Polygamy

Popular media personality Toke Makinwa has once again captured public attention, this time for her candid views on polygamy. During a recent appearance on a podcast, Toke surprised many by revealing that she’s open to becoming a second, third, or even fifth wife.

“In all honesty, at this point in my life, if I have the opportunity to be the second, third, fourth, or fifth wife, I will take it,” she said during the interview, sparking widespread conversation online.

Shortly after the episode aired, Toke took to Instagram to share what happened next: her inbox was flooded with marriage proposals. She posted screenshots of messages from men expressing their interest, proving just how quickly her comments resonated with a certain audience.

One of the proposals came from a senior data analyst based in Ibadan, who directly asked, “Can we get married?” Another message came from a 50-year-old man with four children, who claimed to have ₦500,000 in his bank account and no current wife, asking if he had a chance with her.

The responses to her openness have been a mix of amusement and admiration. While many online users joked about the boldness of the suitors, others praised Toke for her honesty and confidence in expressing her relationship preferences.

Toke is no stranger to making headlines for her outspoken personality and unfiltered opinions, but this latest episode has sparked a fresh wave of debates about modern relationships, polygamy, and women owning their choices.

Whether serious or not, the flood of proposals has proven that Toke Makinwa still has a strong grip on public attention—and she’s not afraid to challenge societal norms to live on her own terms.
