According to Iya Rainbow , her late husband was very caring and supportive before he passed on 1984.” For the past 30 years, I have not had sex, i can’t do it again till i die” She said.
“I have been the only one carrying the burden alone. He treated me like egg for the few years that we were together, most especially when I was pregnant.
