Former beauty queen, actress, and US based medical
practitioner, Regina Askia-Williams has dropped a heartwarming reaction on Toke
Makinwa’s book entitled, ‘On Becoming’ on her Facebook page. She praised Toke’s
courage to open up on the ugly incident that took place in her marriage. Continue

"There is so much brouhaha over a book "On
Becoming" by Toke Makinwa, because she apparently told "the truth,
unseasoned. I hear somewhere in there she mentions that her hubby gave her an
STD. Whaaaaattt!!! How? So what did she do about it? Will that Nigerian secular
culture demands play out here? Will she fade into the conspiracy of silence as
her life slowly deteriorates? How many wives are suffering same and hiding from
the so called eyes of the world?
"Folks are cringing, talking about "it's not everything
that happens that needs a mention". Lol!! My take is if it happened and
you have the courage to share, share it. I hope this book further exposes the
downside of our deteriorating family values and motivates us towards changes.
The family unit is the only platform we have to take flight .
"If it's cracked, we start out in life impaired. Whoever this
woman is - I salute your courage for owning your truth....
"This is the kind of chutzpah that starts a conversation,
that gets folks thinking, that changes hearts and minds, that makes things
happen. People!! Go buy that book," she said.

What if she got the infection from other means while on trip!
ReplyDeleteIf toke & maje are still married, would she have said all these???
ReplyDeleteThe guy is promiscuous.
ReplyDeleteI dont believe that an ex-wife should publicly disgrace her ex-husband like this. She could have told her storry without mentioning any name and still pass her message.
ReplyDeleteKarma has a way of dealing with tthis kind off stuff. Remember when Kanye and Kim publicly disgraced Taylor Swift. Look at their life now
What is STI? I thought Regina who is a medic should have corrected this wrong notion. The docs didn't even tell her the name of the infection, and she concluded it's an STI!
ReplyDeleteWhy I said the name of the infection is bcuz that's the only thing that'll tell if it's sexually transmitted or not.
