Nigeria’s On Air Personality, Toke Makinwa, has said she accomplished everything she set out to at the COP28 Climate Summit in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, though she was the butt of a joke.
The Eagle Online recalls that Makinwa was among Nigeria’s 1,411 delegation to COP-28, which raised eyebrows.
Makinwa, who spoke in the latest episode of her podcast on YouTube: “TokeMoments,” said she was the butt of a joke among Nigerian dignitaries that attended the summit.
This followed a question thrown to her by her guest on the show, Ini Edo.
The actress asked Makinwa: “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.
“I was just shocked.
“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.
