Toke Makinwa says she is ready to be “2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th wife”.
Newsone Nigeria reports that Nigerian media personality and actress, Toke Makinwa, says she is at a point in her life where her marital choices are limited.
The 40-year-old Nigerian actress, while speaking in the latest episode of her podcast, said if given the opportunity to be a second, third, fourth, or even fifth wife, she would consider it.
Her words: “As independent women, do you think that we have glamourised this notion of being independent?,” Makinwa asked her guest on the show, Banke Kuku.
“Yeah. It’s tough,” Kuku replied.
The movie star added, “I won’t lie, Banke. Let me break it down. Forget the cameras.
“At this point in my life, if I have the opportunity to be the second, third, fourth or fifth wife, I will take it.”
Makinwa stated that she needs a man that she can lean on sometimes.
She said, “Let me tell you what the biggest thing for me is, I am the boss everywhere and that could be tiring. You feel like you need someone to lean on. Someone that could decide what is for dinner. Must it be me?”
