According to her, the journey began as far back as 2008 when she underwent a laparoscopy and a dye test as part of medical efforts to conceive.
At the time, she was hopeful, unaware of how long and challenging the process would become.
Toyosi revealed that she tried in vitro fertilisation (IVF) in 2009, a procedure that was both expensive and uncertain.
She disclosed that the cost ranged between ₦900,000 and ₦1 million at the time—a significant amount she had to gather through personal sacrifices.
“I had a boutique at the time, so I raised money from various sources. I even sold all my gold jewellery to do the IVF,” she said.
Despite her efforts, the procedure failed.
For her, it was a painful moment, but she held on, knowing the chances were never guaranteed.
Determined not to give up, Toyosi tried again in 2011—but faced another disappointment.
Still holding on to hope, she made another attempt in 2013. However, before that attempt, she underwent a stressful operation, adding to the physical and emotional toll of the journey.
Each failed attempt came with its own weight, testing her resilience and faith.
