"I Want A Man Who Doesn't Chase Women And Won't Constantly Beg Me For Money"-Toyin Aimakhu

Toyi Aimakhu,has revealed she is set to date again in a recent
interview with Punch.


The actress has listed some certain Criteria this time.
She said the man must be tall,taller than she is,must not run around
other woman and must not constantly demand for money from her.

See excerpts from the
interview;

On the man she wants:

"I want a man who is tall, hardworking, and loves his job. I would
want to be with a man who does not chase women and would not
constantly request for money from me. If he needs my help, I can do
it. I don't want to be with a short man. My man has to be taller than
I am."

On weight loss:

"Why would I change my look because of any man when I have my job, my
career, and people who look up to me? I love my new look because it
has helped my career a lot. Now I get more roles even in the English
speaking industry and most of the movies are in the cinemas. Also my
clothes fit me well. My stylist does not have to go extra mile to make
my clothes."

On why she changed her
surname from Aimakhu to
Abraham:

"Abraham is my father's
name and it was a family decision. I cannot be talking about my family
online, it is my life. My brother who is also a famous dancer
bears the name, David
Abraham. That shows that it is my
father's name. At first I
thought about my brand
before changing the
name but eventually, I
had to change it. I did not want to change it
but my business
manager asked me to
do so. I know the decision
confused some of my
fans but with time, they
would get used to it. I
am Toyin Abraham now
and I am building a new brand."

On dealing with
controversies:

"I feel it is normal and comes with the territory of being an actress.
Based on the fact that I am an actress, people will always tag me with
something. It hurts when they say I was in a relationship with someone
I never dated or when they write about things that I did not do and
just put it out there. Sometimes I read such write-ups and begin to
wonder if I ever did those things but what will I do? "To be great in
life, you have to be willing to be mocked, hated and misunderstood. I
don't see criticism as anything and I am not bothered whenever I am
being criticised by the public. I know that some people would love me
and others would hate me, so I do not let that disturb me. Trust me,
the criticism only makes me a better person, so when people say
negative things about me, it makes me understand that I cannot be
right every time. I thank God that I am now getting some things
right."
