May Yul Edochie, an entrepreneur and fist wife of actor Yul Edochie, has taken a stance against her husband decision to go into polygamy.
However, early this year, in April, actor Yul Edochie caused a social media storm, after announcing his second marriage to his colleague, Judy Moghalu, as well as the birth of their son.
In a lengthy Instagram post on Saturday, May said she had a stable and loving home prior to the unprecedented event regarding her marriage. She said polygamy is a life choice and that no one should be compelled to accept it. The mother of four stressed that some religions/traditions polygamy and that she has nothing against it but that as a person she will not be numbered or cajoled to accept a practice that does not align with her faith and family values.
May added that the house in which she lives was jointly built by her and Yul.
She also hinted that she had forgiven her husband, nothing that “we all have our witnesses and limitations as humans”.
Her lengthy post read: “The ability to accept or tolerate challenges and problems in life is a virtue, and should not be misconstrued. This is not point making an already bad situation worst, hence the need to remain calm is crucial.
I understand that we all have our witnesses and limitations as humans, and I personally believe everyone deserves an opportunity to make things right when they stray… Forgiveness is devine.
Beyond all the unnecessary facades, polygamy is a life choice and no one should compelled to accept it. It is something I think all parties involved should embrace willingly, and it’s okay for anyone who chooses it. Some religions/traditions allow polygamy and I have nothing against it. However, I am ABSOLUTELY certain that I will not be NUMBERED as a wife or be cajoled with my faith and family values.
God blessed me with a happy, peacefully and loving family in a beautiful and JOINTLY built “mansion” that started from little or nothing… humble beginnings. What more could I have been asking for? I have a stable and loving home prior to the unprecedented event regarding my marriage.
Life is made up of an infinite amount of choice. Most decisions might be tough to make, but whenever we confront our options with courage and confidence, we should equally be open to the paths of our own design. I believe that we are solely responsible for our choices and we have to accept the consequences of every deed, word and thought that comes with ITIN our lifetime.
We should understand that taking life changing decision hastily is not the best. God in His infinity mercy fixes things in His own time, He will definitely answer all our prayers.
Thank you all for your continuous prayers, love and support. May God bless you abundantly.”
