The couple were united in Holy Matrimony on February 15 2013 – and have since then been able to stand the test of time because it was given six months to crash.
Kayode Salako and his lovely wife, actress, Foluke Daramola are waxing stronger by the day.
The activist cum businessman gave some moments they shared in their three-and-a-half-year old union.
Was he skeptical when he wanted to marry a divorcee since he was also divorced at that time?
He said:
“I did not fancy Nigerian actresses. When I met Foluke, she never proved to me that she was the sterotypical actress. She is a very good cook, washes my underwear, she is homely and not outgoing. In fact, I now prod her to go out. She prefers to be at home with her husband and the children. She is very reasonable, mentally upright, focus and ambitious. She is godly and she can recite 25 psalms in the Bible off hand. She is not money conscious, fun to be with and till date, we still live as friends. We have many things in common. We are activists, we both believe in fighting for our rights.”
Any reaction from his family?
“I wasn’t expecting to marry a perfect woman. I have decided to be her father, her boss, her friend and a teacher. When I was getting married, I told everyone in my family to go all out and make inquiries if she is my wife. I consulted about 65 pastors before I made up my mind on her.”
Who apologises when there is a misunderstanding?
Foluke, the mother of two replied, “I was in a marriage before, so making amends when there is a wrong is no problem. Most of the time, I say, ‘I’m sorry,’ it does not cost anything to apologise. If not given, it can degenerate to anything. Fortunately, he does not suffer from inferiority complex. The kind of upbringing I have is contentment and love. I want to have my husband, children and run my home. When we were about getting married, my father-in-law was skeptical and some of his siblings. I made everybody realise that acting is a profession, which I happen to find myself.”
Kayode said, “Foluke is stubbornly reasonable but quick to accept her fault. She kneels down and apologises and sometimes, sheds tears to show she is indeed sorry. I love her very much, she is like my baby and I don’t fail to tell her when she is wrong. Our quarrel doesn’t last an hour. We are not in this marriage by accident but by the will of God.”
So, what makes a marriage successful?
Kayode proffered, “Maintain that channel of communication. Discuss it all because when you don’t tell her she might not know. Secondly, understand each other. Know your wife and who she is. You must also be friends. Also a man should learn to overlook especially if you are married to a celebrity. I read a book where a writer said nothing is a problem, only thinking makes it so. If you attach meanings to every issue, marriage heads for the rocks. Not all the time should you overlook but when you want to make a complaint let it be in the confines of your bedroom. Let the man be mentally mature too and be confident in himself. Also, learn to share. A man should not allow his wife do all the chores and he wants to share her money with her, it fails. She is not your slave, she is a human being that deserves happiness.”
Foluke said, “The woman is motivated by what she hears and the man, what he sees. Women make the mistake of not spicing up their marriage. What are those things that attracted him to you? Then, don’t stop. He loves my legs and I wear short skirts at home for him. You have to put your man on his toes. Read books and know what excite your marriage. Also, men don’t tell their wives ‘I love you.’ Pay her compliments. I wash his undies, cook special diet. In fact celebs go the extra mile to make marriage work. We try to pamper, make men feel special and want homes. We need confident men. Take care of your man. Say, ‘I love you’. My husband tells me every morning, ‘I love you.’
Oh Really!!!!!!! clap for yourself.
Why didn’t you make it 70
Gbam!!!!

Lie!

Liar. So its the Pastors that confirmed that she is good for you after you cheated on your wife?
Only 65, you no try at all. You for consult 650.

Nay women wey be like wily wily,
Smh. Dumb mentality
ONLY?
So…??
It means that you don’t know what you want
Only 65?
You must be kidding me. Your next step is to consult them once more before sleeping with her and having children. Ignorance and naivety to the core.
???
How does it add to the growth of my fish, hehn?!
It means you worship pastors. Mortal beings
Only 65? Too small and why he didn’t come my side.
So you think you’re wise…well, ironically speaking, you’re wise because pastors don’t guarantee good marriage. You could have asked Jesus
When you see a nasty bitch you smell them? This is one of them 100%.
You should also consulte them on which style is best bedroom wise, other’s go see a psychiatrist.
Or prophets?
na who sent u?????.u wan kill urself??????.busy body..mm
You should have made it 100. …….oooooooooò

Be careful oh.
Craze dey worrie you

And they told u to go ahead, wat a statement from men of God. God help us.
Pple cn lie.
For u to have said u consulted 65pastors it means u are going gaga and the so called pastors are not pastors are not real pastors.I can’t believe that any man of God will tell u to abandon ur wife and 3children
That’s not true…d woman left d house even bfo d relationship started.
Always find d truth first
@Busolami, He cheated on her, and all the problems was from the man. No woman just wakes up one day and leave a very caring and loving husband.
Is that necessary??? This is an info you should have kept to your self alone you indecisive man
Hope is working sha? That is what is important
Y must u tell pple about it?u don’t trust urself.
Pretty lier
