Toke Makinwa Net worth
So how much is Toke Makinwa really worth? Voices from our top sources and some industry people suggest that our very own Toke Makinwa has a net worth that is in the region of $800,000 to $2 million (equivalent to between ₦304 million to ₦760 million). On the basis of the numbers stated here, Toke Makinwa is by far one of the wealthiest media industry people in the country at the moment.
Where does the money come from?
The next big question will now be, how the OAP makes that level of wealth considering that she's based here in Nigeria. As we already know, Toke is a media person and she has been in that industry for about 2 decades or so now. She's been on Radia and TV, raking in a handsome deal of fortune within this time.
She's also a social media personality and influencer with over 5 million followers across her social media accounts including Instagram and Twitter. For instance, on Instagram alone, Toke has over 4.4 million followers and from industry statistics, a person with over 1 million active followers can charge as much as $10,000 per post. And when you consider how active Toke's followers are (In one of her recent posts, over 30,000 likes was garnered within an hour), you can easily appreciate that she can make that much or even more from just Instagram. And hey!!!, she models for the biggest fashion brands you can think of, the Dior, Alexander Wang, and Prada of this world.
Interestingly too, our Baby Girl For Life is an entrepreneur with a thriving business. If you follow her, you will know that she owns a line of luxury accessories including specially designed bags, scarf and beauty products. A Toke Makinwa bag (TM luxury bags) sells for as high as ₦55,000 and they always get sold out whenever they hit the shelf.
More than this, our chic has signed some really lucrative deals as a brand ambassador for major brands like Ciroc, PayPorte, Mecran Cosmetics, Nestle Nigeria and most recently with Oppo mobile. To get a glimpse of how much she possibly makes from these deals, a source recently reported that the super-duper OAP charges as much as ₦20 million - ₦45 million to promote any brand. Now I see your jaw-dropping, abeg cover mouth joor mbok.
So you can now begin to appreciate it when we say the OAP is worth between ₦304 million to ₦760 million.

Toke Makinwa owns a number of properties but there is this one property in the Ikoyi axis of the prestigious Lagos Island that we all are in the know of. In fact, it has been rumoured that the property was gifted to Toke by billionaire businessman Chief Festus Fadeyi. And only last year the property was a subject of controversy as it was reported that it was taken over by the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria AMCON as it was a part of the various properties confiscated by the Agency to recover the ₦240 billion owed by the businessman.
However, Toke and her team came out to refute such claims stating that her property in Ikoyi was paid for by her and fully registered in her name. And at the moment, we see Toke always chilling in this beautiful crib and wouldn't stop taking beautiful photos from there, so it is safe to say that the property is truly hers. Check out a few photos of the property below.

Toke Makinwa Cars and Private Jet
So how many cars does the famous Toke Makinwa own? Well, it's possible she owns up to 10 cars; however, we are very much conversant with this Range Rover SUV she keeps flaunting on Instagram and Twitter. Toke announced the arrival of her dream car sometime in June of 2017. The 2017 models of the Land Rover Range Rover SUV costs between ₦23.5 million to ₦40.1 million. So, our chic OAP definitely forked out as much cash within the range stated to take possession of that ride.

However, controversy made sure to accompany the SUV on its arrival. Immediately our babe's friend began showing off the SUV, the rumour mills started churning loud. Our social media warriors challenged the initial notion that Toke paid for the SUV, that she can't afford such an expensive car. Others even posited that it was her sugar daddy that got it for her...Hehehehehehe.
Anyways, our chic had to come out and set the records straight, telling everyone that she paid for the ride with her own sweat of hard work and prayers...Shikena!!!. If you don't like it like that, just go and hug a transformer...Lol!!!. Check out some photos she took with her Range Rover SUV below.
Let's keep it Chic

Besides the Range Rover SUV, Toke has been spotted flaunting some other really cool cars. Just this May, she was photographed posing with this hot Lamborghini supercar. We can't tell if she owns the ride, but if she does, you can be sure she spent well above what she forked out for her Range Rover SUV. Currently, the cheapest 2021 model of a Lamborghini goes for as low as $220,000 (about ₦84 million), and as high as $580,000 or about ₦220 million.

So does Toke own a private jet?. Well, my people will sometimes say "who dash monkey banana"...Lol. We shall think owning a private jet is well out of the earnings league of our very own "Baby Girl For Life". But you can be sure she enjoys the exclusive private jet experience every time she takes a flight. See her enjoying one of her private jet moments below.
Private Jet experience all the way

In 2014, Toke Makinwa would tie the knot with her long time partner Maje Ayida in a small and private ceremony. We all were excited for her especially as she was getting married to a man who had been in her life for over 8 years. However, things didn't go as planned and just within a year, the couple was already separated and heading for a divorce. By 2017, her divorce to Maje Ayida was concluded and her marriage of just 3 years was dissolved by a magistrate court in Lagos...See some photos of her marriage ceremony below.
