Toke Makinwa Claps Back at Backlash Over Women Funding Their Partners
Media personality Toke Makinwa has responded to the uproar over her recent interview with reality star Mercy Eke. She admitted she finds it odd when women pay their male partners’ bills. Makinwa explained that in her own relationships she immediately shares every expense. She joked that if a man earns ₦5,000, she expects at least ₦3,000 of it to come her way. She added that she’s never dated a man who’s asked her for money. After critics accused her of promoting transactional romance, she clarified her comments were meant in jest. She reaffirmed that love should never rest solely on financial arrangements, stressing money alone cannot build a healthy relationship.
