Popular media personality, Toke Makinwa has vowed never to change her surname when she gets married.

She recalled her past marriage with the fitness coach, Maje Ayida. Toke Makinwa stated that not adding his surname to hers made it easier for her, and saved from the stress of changing the name in all her documents.

She said …

“I kept my last name when I get 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.”
