I Do Get An Erection Too- Yinka Ayefele

Yinka Ayefele’s Testimony After 20 Years of Ghastly Accident.

The Veteran singer, Yinka Ayefele in an interview with Sunday Scoop, recounted all that happened after the accident.
According to him, one of the highlights of the incident was him getting an erection.



After the accident, everyone jubilated when I had an erection one afternoon. I was wondering why they were rejoicing and they told me the doctors said I would not be able to have an erection again. They had reached the conclusion without myknowledge.”

On his girlfriend then who later became his wife, Ayefele said;
“She didn’t leave me when I was hospitalised, so why would she leave me afterwards? When things were bad, she was with me all through. We got married after the accident and we are blessed with four
boys.”


He continued;
“I can still remember my response to a journalist who wanted to be sure I could impregnate a woman. I told him to bring his sister if he wanted a confirmation. It used to be embarrassing when people questioned my sexual ability.

Even if I am unable to make love to a woman, should that make them happy?
Even if my wife and I opted for IVF, is it something they should gloat about?”
Recalling the circumstances that confined him to the wheelchair, he said,
“I was on my way to Abeokuta, but I lost control of the car because it rained heavily that day. The car fell into a deep pit. I was taken to a nearby hospital, but they couldn’t handle my case because I was vomiting blood. I was taken to another hospital where it was discovered that I had
a spinal cord injury.

I was then transferred to the University College Hospital, Ibadan, where I stayed for almost a year before I was discharged.
Much later, I raised funds and travelled to the United Kingdom, for specialised treatment.” 20 years after, Ayefele still feels pains and said he has decided to stop taking pills because he fears that it may affect his kidney or liver. “I am still feeling pains; I am always in pain every day. Pills cannot even stop the pains and I am conscious of what I take in, but I thank God I have been able to cope. I give thanks to God for sparing my life.
“I personally thought I would die, but my
parents and loved ones encouraged me to stay alive. They felt bad, but they didn’t want to lose me. My father was alive then, but I lost him two years ago. He was so supportive all through the trying times” he
said.
