Veteran Nollywood actress, Idowu Phillips
popularly known as Iya Rainbow in a recent
interview with Punch opens up on how life has
been since the death of her husband in 1984.


Veteran Actress, Idowu Phillips aka Iya
Rainbow
The top actress, Iya Rainbow said:

“I didn’t re-marry
because many men are liars and I don’t like that.
They come to your house, feel comfortable, you
cook for them and probably have sex with them and
then they say ‘I would see you tomorrow,’ but you
will never see them again. I don’t like that. It is better
for someone to carry one’s cross. It is just that it is
not easy to raise children.

I advise widows to walk in my footsteps, I know it is
not easy not to re-marry but with prayers, God
would help them. For instance, if I had re-married, I
probably would have had other children and I would
be the one to see them through school at my old
age and the man might even leave me. I thought
about all these and I decided to face parenthood.”


The 72-year-old Lagos born actress, who has spent
45 years on stage lost her husband in 1984 after
battling with a sickness for about two and a half.
Iya Rainbow also said although she gets suitors, they
end up running away once they see the number of
her children.

Speaking on if she hasn’t had sex since the death of
her husband said:

“Then, I did not even remember that I am a woman.
I pray no one goes through what I went through.
Then, the only time I remembered that I am a
woman was when I wanted to ease myself. husband
to me”.
Haa! See lie sha; She got laid before dis interview sef!
EducationRe: Most Difficult Universities To Make First-Class In Nigeria? by SmileyOP(m): 7:57pm On Nov 02, 2014

In my opinion, it is much easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for students to make first class in these institutions.
1. Federal University of Technology Akure (FUTA)
2. University of Ibadan (UI)
3. Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU)
4. University of Benin (UNIBEN)
What's your view?
I feel NOUN (Open University) is d hardest... Abi I lie? "Life is a Joke"
