Popular media personality Toke Makinwa has vowed to take a firm stand against online trolls this year after facing age-shaming for openly expressing her admiration for the American singer Drake on the X platform.
Despite admitting to having a significant crush on Drake, she was ridiculed by a Twitter user with the handle ‘Ugotweets’.
The troll not only questioned the likelihood of Drake being interested in a woman in her 40s but also made derogatory comments about Toke Makinwa’s appearance, particularly mentioning a “horrendous” Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL).
In response to this attack, Toke Makinwa unleashed her frustration and made it clear that she would not tolerate such bullying in the new year.
She pledged to no longer be a victim of online insults and expressed her determination to confront anyone who engages in trolling.
Quoting her word on the X platform, Toke Makinwa said, “Imagine being related to someone who tweets/thinks like this??? God abeg o. Your mother should have swallowed cos this is a sorry excuse of a human being. Do better. Imagine dating someone who trolls strangers on the internet, like imagine having so much bile at someone you cannot be, some of you actually need to get help this year cos this disgusting behavior of trolling or hurling insults at people you don’t know is sickening.”
“This year I will no longer be your punching bag, I have a mouth too and I will no longer look away if you come at me left. No be me do you. Ya”ll comment on everything that has to do with me like you can stand in my presence. You wish!!”
