Foluke Daramola Salako recently opened up to red flags in relationships.
The wife of the politician Kayode Salako in an interview with TVC Your View revealed that she lost her virginity through rape.
As such, she developed a hatred for sex and saw it as punishment, but her first husband didn’t care about her plight and wanted it every day.
To her, she saw it as beatings and she was always afraid to go home.
“I lost my virginity through rape, so sex for me was a punishment and the person I married always wanted it. I felt like he was hitting me.”
She added that before she married him, she saw the red flags but ignored them.
Foluke said that her partner was pressuring her to get married and since she wanted to get married due to peer pressure, she jumped at it.
She revealed that she broke a sim on her wedding night when her husband asked her to cut it.
“When I wanted to get my first marriage, the signal was there even though my partner was pressuring me to get married and I thought my friends were getting married. All the signs were there. Anger issues.
My first experience was on my wedding night. I have a broken sim because I had to switch to a new sim.
I saw the signs of abuse and anger, but I ignored them.
I had to stay there because of what the evidence would say.”
