The controversial actress and media personality Toke Makinwa has come clean about her new policy: she would not purchase gifts for men in her romantic relationships.
Reality sensation Beauty Tukura was a guest on a recent episode of Makinwa’s Toke Moments podcast, in which she discussed how her encounter with an older man as an undergraduate led her to avoid purchasing gifts for men.
She described the traumatic experience of discovering her older lover had been unfaithful after she had used her school fees to pay for his birthday party.
