Popular media personality and actress Toke Makinwa has urged Nigerians to abandon the assumption that single people are miserable, lonely, and sad in 2024.

Makinwa finds it amusing when people assume that individuals who are single are miserable and lonely because they do not have anyone. She noted that, contrary to popular belief, single people are content and happy with their lives.

As 2025 approaches, Toke Makinwa warned people to let go of the perception that single individuals are miserable and lonely in 2024, as there could be many people with partners who actually wish they were single.

Toke Makinwa asserted that it is important for people to find their purpose in life, as they could have partners but still feel lonely if they lack purpose.

She wrote, "Beats me how some people think that every single person is lonely, it’ll shock you how content and happy single people are. Don’t get me wrong, it’s good to do life with someone but if you don’t find your own purpose you can be with someone and still be lonely."
