Every other random week or month, Toke Makinwa manages to set social media astir with her controversial opinions on relationships, fashion, life hacks etc. Today again the author of Unbecoming has many tongues wagging on Twitter NG over her latest utterance. For a moment, we have all forgotten our country’s woes as #WokeLikeToke, #Toke and #WhatsappCalls take the front burner.

Got that, guys? “Spend your money, let me feel as if you’re on the phone for an hour on your money”.
She went on to add: “I personally think if a guy Whatsapp calls me, I feel a certain type of way.”
With clockwork precision, TwitterNG erupted with jokes, sarcasm and annoyance. Basically, Twitter has written Toke off.

Toke's outlook is odd. Reeks of someone who needs to believe that a man has cared about her at one point. The advice? She dey warn herself

Rubbish and nonsense
I have since learned to ignore Toke's insane standards
What I cannot ignore is how she manages to speak w/o her upper & lower lips meeting.

Aunty Toke shouldn't be taken seriously tbh. She doesn't know data is expensive?😭😭

Dear Lord,
What wrong did we commit as Nigerians to deserve humans like Toke Makinwa, Diezani, Lai Mohammed, Speedy, Bobrisky?
Forgive us🙏— PAUL WAE (@PaulWae_) August 9, 2017

Toke is right
If it's whatsapp video that's okay but not whatsapp call. I agree with Toke Makinwa. Jump on a clit 😒

I’m with Toke on this one, but not for the reasons you think

Funny thing is I don't even like Whatsapp calls. But that's because it's usually not as clear as mobile calls.

We have left the substance, which is the actual communication to focus on the channel. Whatsapp call or regular phonecalls. Chasing shadows

Toke: Spend money on real phone calls, not free WhatsApp calls.

The Naija factor
Just a sign of how new and expensive our telecommunications industry is, that this is the thinking that has developed. C'est la vie.
