The Co-founder of Agape Christian Ministries, Bishop Funke Felix-Adejumo, has urged African women to embrace their sexuality without shame, challenging cultural norms that suppress open discussions about intimacy.
Speaking in a video shared via her Instagram page on Tuesday, she encouraged women to discard outdated beliefs and confidently express their needs in marriage. 
Adejumo emphasised that mutual enjoyment and open communication are key to a healthy and fulfilling relationship.
“I like sex. If I don’t, how will I have children? And you are just pretending—you like sex.
“African culture has told you that a woman should not show that she enjoys sex; otherwise, they will call her a prostitute,” she said.
Adejumo stressed the importance of shedding such mindsets, warning that suppressing intimacy could cause marital problems.
“When your husband is touching you, you’re happy. So, the first thing is to change that mentality, otherwise, you’ll be causing problems in your marriage,” she added.
Encouraging wives to be more expressive during intimacy, she said, “Tell yourself, ‘sex is good. I want my husband.’ And when you’re having sex with him, don’t just lie there like a log—talk, moan, sex is good.”
She further cautioned that repressed desires could weaken relationships.
“You cannot believe that African mentality. Let’s change it. The devil is using it to destroy marriages because that’s the highest level of intimacy.
“Tickle your husband, touch him when he’s making love to you. When he finishes, tell him he did a good job,” she advised.
