May Edochie’s Lawyer Criticizes Yul Over Polygamy Claims
May Edochie’s attorney, Emeka Ugwuonye, recently expressed criticism towards Nigerian actor Yul Edochie regarding his recent remarks on marriage. Yul Edochie, who is now aspiring to become a preacher, made statements during a podcast interview suggesting that individuals should exit a failing marriage and are free to enter into multiple marriages if they desire, prioritizing personal happiness over societal judgments.
In response, Ugwuonye highlighted the inconsistency in Yul’s stance, citing Yul’s own actions during his marital struggles. Rather than adhering to his proclaimed advice of leaving a troubled marriage, Yul attempted to compel May to accept the addition of a second wife, asserting his position as a “proud polygamist.”
Ugwuonye pointed out the contradiction between Yul’s public declarations and his personal conduct, emphasizing the legal framework surrounding marriage. He underscored the importance of recognizing marriage as a legally binding institution that entails specific procedures and obligations. Additionally, Ugwuonye emphasized the familial and legal implications of marriage, including the joint acquisition of assets and the responsibility of raising children.
The lawyer’s remarks stirred discussions online, with many individuals condemning Yul’s contradictory stance and his treatment of May amidst their marital challenges.
