Media personality and Vlogger, Toke Makinwa, has said she is filled with joy and greatly humbled by featuring on CNN African Voices.

The On-Becoming author said she had always dreamed of being interviewed on CNN and finally God heard her prayers.

“I just kept thinking to myself, one day, one day CNN will interview me too and it will be ever so inspiring. God heard me, he has taken me on such a journey that words can’t explain. Thank you, Jesus, thank you”, she wrote.

During the interview, Toke talked about her brand and her journey so far. She also shared photos and video clips of the interview on her Instagram page.

She wrote,

“Mama I made it ???. TM made it to CNN.

“I remember sitting up in bed a couple of years ago watching African Voices on CNN, it was Tiwa Savage’s episode and I was intrigued just watching her talk about her craft, I won’t forget in a hurry, she was in a studio and I just kept thinking to myself, one day, one day CNN will interview me too and it will be ever so inspiring. God heard me, he has taken me on such a journey that words can’t explain. Thank you, Jesus, thank you.

“Watching my CNN African Voices feature brought tears to my eyes, seeing my parents pictures up on CNN made me feel tremendous joy as they left this earth before they could become, I hope they are proud of me?.

“Watching my journey humbled me, it’s easy for us to focus on what we haven’t achieved yet without taking stock and giving ourselves credit for how far we’ve come. To everyone out there with a dream, give yourself a break, work at your goals but be in the moment always.

“It may not look like much is happening but look back, you are not where you started. Stay thankful for your journey and always remember, someone is watching. Thank you @cnnafrica cc @cnn for putting Africa on the map, thank you for such a huge platform. If you missed it you can watch TM on CNN thru out the weekend and next week too. “We global”???.”
