“You Have No Business Getting Married in Your 20s” – Toke Makinwa Advises Young People
Renowned media personality Toke Makinwa recently opened up about her experiences in her 20s, sharing reflections on love, growth, and the valuable lessons she learned.
During an appearance on Cocktails and Takeaways, Toke revealed that much of her youth was consumed by a singular focus on a long-term relationship.
Looking back, she admits that period of her life felt limiting and lacked the self-discovery she now values.
Reflecting on that chapter, Toke said, “I don’t think I really enjoyed my 20s.
At the time, I didn’t fully know what I was doing because I was so deeply invested in just one man.
My entire 20s revolved around that one relationship.”
Although she cherishes the growth that came from those experiences, Toke emphasized how her perspective has shifted over the years.
She noted that her past decisions and the lessons that followed have been pivotal in shaping her current outlook on life and relationships.
“If I could turn back time, I might have made different choices,” she added.
“But I’m grateful for where I am today. Every experience has contributed to the woman I’ve become.”
Toke used her story as an opportunity to share advice with younger people, cautioning against rushing into serious commitments during their early years.
She encouraged them to prioritize personal growth and self-awareness.
“I always tell young people, especially women, that there’s no need to rush into marriage in your early or mid-20s.
Those years should be about figuring out who you are and building a foundation for your future. Knowing yourself first is key to building a healthy and fulfilling life.

Nigerian singer Ycee reacts to the viral and trending akara skits that emerged after the advice given by the First Lady of Nigeria, Oluremi Tinubu.
It can be recalled that the First Lady shared that Nigerians can fight unemployment by going into the akara or corn business to sustain themselves in the current economy.
Following her comments, content creator Gilmore made a skit about selling akara, to which Ycee reacted “To all of you yelling ‘satire.'”
“The entire idea of satire as a literary device is to use humor, be entertaining, while also criticizing and exposing the issue at the base of the content. Portraying ‘akara selling’ as a lucrative business where you’re taking payment in Solana and ETH, patronizing Polanco and shopping at HF, etc… where is the said ‘satire’ that you all are screaming?”
Nigerian businessman Blord advises young and single people regarding marriage.
He shared that they should not rush into marriage and that they need to be financially and emotionally ready, not just emotionally prepared, in order to sustain a marriage.
During a recent interview, the businessman shared “Don’t rush to marry. Take your time and make a good choice for a life partner. Don’t break ladies’ hearts because one day you are going to have a daughter, and what you did to other people’s daughters, someone else is going to do the same to your daughter.”
“So, take your time. Age doesn’t matter. Don’t marry who you will regret later because reversing marriage is very, very hard, especially when children are involved.”
