Renowned media personality, Toke Makinwa, has asserted that she successfully achieved all her objectives at the COP28 Climate Summit held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Notably, Toke Makinwa's participation in Nigeria's 1411-member delegation to COP-28 stirred controversy, with questions raised about her role at the summit.
Addressing the criticism in the latest episode of her podcast, TokeMoments, Makinwa shared that she began taking the backlash seriously when "important people" started reaching out to her.
Her guest on the show, actress Ini Edo asked: “How did your attendance of the COP28 Climate Summit in Dubai go? Did you get into the conversations from the panels?”Makinwa replied: “Yes. I accomplished everything I set out to do with it [COP28]. I was just shocked [by the uproar]. And I think because Dubai is three hours [ahead of Nigeria], I woke up to see the backlash on social media.
“For me, it started feeling serious when important people started calling me. And I think that for me was funny. I walked into this hotel in Dubia where they were a lot of important people, all of them have seen the backlash and they started calling me ‘item seven’ and it was funny. We all just laughed. It was so funny.”
She said her backlash was one of the top trends of COP28.
