Omotola, Genevieve, PSquare, More Celebs Open Up On How They Lost Their Virginity

Sometimes I laugh at the questions that Nigerian journalists ask, but it's not that the questions are irrelevant, but they are asked so flippantly.

The book aims to show that condoms can be very strong and durable and this I think is a good novelty way to spread a serious message.
