She revealed this in a recent Toke Moments episode, stating that her name is a brand that she has put a lot of effort into building.
Toke, who was previously married to Maje Ayida, a fitness instructor, claimed that not changing her name during their marriage made their divorce less stressful since she didn’t have to deal with the stress of having her name reversed.
The media personality said;
“I kept my last name when I got married. It was supposed to be Toke Makinwa-Ayida but it was only at home that he called me Mrs Ayida.
I hope that whoever I end up with next would actually love it because Toke Makinwa is staying. I don’t want to hyphenate. But my kids can bear their father’s surname.
In my marriage, my bank details, my passport, nothing changed. Imagine what I would have gone through trying to change it back when we got divorce. I have built this brand with my blood, sweat and tears.”
