Snippets of Toke Makinwa's book On Becoming.


First of all, you just have to go on Amazon and buy this book, read it and digest it.  Toke who broke free from her demons after her biggest fear at the time became a reality went deep in her book which she described as a must tell.


It is funny how much women have to put up with in the name of keeping a man. Toke came out a victor. Toke revealed how she had to deal with the other woman through out her relationship, How Maje made her feel inadequate... and how she contemplated suicide.


There was that time he told her he had to see his father after arriving Nigeria from a long trip. She had missed him so much she wanted to see him. Disappointed but understanding her had to see his dad, She went out for a movie with her friend only for her to see him with his longtime sidepiece Anita.



Before they got married, he stood her up three times. Fixing dates and cancelling on her. Until they had their first dance at the wedding, she was scared he would bail on her again. Many would judge her and say why put yourself through that. Remember she was with him at a very young age. She is 32 now, their marriage crashed when she was 31 and they were already together for 13/14 years. Do the maths.




This is how she found out Anita was pregnant. She was already 9 months pregnant.


His mother once prayed for Toke saying she would find her own husband.


She was even more honest.




OMG! Is Maje for real?????? Toke is a Hero. She turned her pain into strength. 

Some Book Review.

Omg. This is painful.

I don't know how people can be attracted to demons who don't respect or treat them well.

I hope her story can make people in similar excuse for a relationship question theirs and avoid stories that touch later on.

He wasn't serious about, made too many excuses etc, yet she loved him. What kind of one -sided love is this ?! Glad that at least she's making some money from her story. So messed up , mahnn!

I hope that some day she will find her own husband and live happily ever after. All the best Toke..hugs.
