OAP Toke
Makinwa has said that she would no longer allow herself to become the target of
false stories.
This was
after her Banana Island house was reported to have been seized by AMCON because
the sugar daddy who gifted it to her failed to pay his debt to the agency.
Making her
position clear on fake news peddled about her, Toke Makiwna revealed that she
has a legal team on standby.
“Today I want
to let some things off my chest, this is what twitter is for right? I know we
live in an age of ignore and keep ignoring, I live my life based on that, if
something is not making me money, adding growth to my life or drawing me close
to Jesus… I ignore it.
” I have a
legal team and a management team who are capable and are working to have me
focused on other aspects of my life But today as a person, it just feels right
to really express myself and I am going to do just that. My mental health is
key, my growth as a creative, my life.
“I get that
we all love a good joke, we love to have a laugh to take the stress off most
times and it’s been a heavy year all round but certain things have gone all too
long because I have ignored it most times and after a while a perception is
born, my legacy is important to me.
“I have given
10 years of my life working in the media, I know how important the media is but
last week looking at what the media has become made me feel ashamed, has it
really come to this? Are we really not bothered about investigative journalism,
are we that lazy?
“Anyone with
a phone can literally type anything under the name of “Anonymous” and the media
run with it without verifying, without contacting both parties and even when it
comes out as false do we just move on to the next damage? This has to stop.
“The energy
you put in to spreading false stories should be the same energy you use to
clarify and retract same stories but over the years I have become an easy
target and this has to stop.
“The account
that started the vicious rumour on here deleted the tweets but I have reported
to the police and an investigation is going on as I type, things are going to
get very interesting, perhaps you gather all your coins cos I will buy that house
in banana island”, she shared on Twitter.
