Popular Nigerian media personality Toke Makinwa shared a touching story of her parents’ demise.
According to her, they died in a fire accident and this was the greatest fear of her life. She expressed that the incident had left her in a state of uncertainty and constant anxiety.
In a recent interview with AY, Toke Makinwa said:
Toke said, “I’ve been a victim of a house fire when I was a kid and unfortunately both my parents died as a result of that. That’s one of my biggest fears.”
AY responded, “Sorry about that. I’m just hearing for the first time.”
He then narrated his own fire incident, saying he was on a tour in Canada when his house caught fire.
In his words:
“Knowing fully well that my family was on holiday, that was my point of Thanksgiving.
“I woke up to about 78 missed calls that day. Any time I see something like that, I just know something has happened. I opened my phone and saw my house on Instablog.”
They both narrated their experiences with fire accidents and consoled each other with kind words.
