Polygamy: Yul Edochie’s second marriage is betrayal of trust – Daddy Freeze
Radio broadcaster, Ifedayo Olarinde, popularly known as Daddy Freeze, has reacted to Nollywood actor Yul Edochie’s constant updates on his polygamous life.
Taking to his social media page on Saturday, Daddy Freeze said that Yul betrayed his wife’s love and trust by impregnating and marrying one of his female colleagues.
Polygamy, according to Daddy Freeze, isn’t a sin or a crime, but how Yul done his own makes it unacceptable.
He also contrasted Yul’s lifestyle to Regina Daniels and Mercy Aigbe, who entered a polygamous marriage on purpose and are happy in their marriage.
He went on to say that Yul lacked the ability to marry several wives while advising him to keep his marriage off social media.
In his words: “my brother, there is nothing wrong with polygamy. Many African traditions encourage it, Islam also recommends it in certain situations, while the Bible isn’t against it.

“However, polygamy is a luxury that is not meant for the struggling class. It is a privilege meant for the wealthy. Ned Nwoko owns a Ferrari and a private jet and can maintain them, while we are all privy to pics of Mercy Aigbe flying business class and are also aware that her hubby is quite wealthy.
“Can Yul really afford those luxuries, let’s be honest with ourselves; or are the resources meant for May and her Children going to be slashed to accommodate more people?
Furthermore, Ned, just like Mercy Aigbe’s hubby is a Muslim.
“All Ned’s wives are aware he is polygamous. Yul on the other hand married May in court, in a monogamous agreement, which now suggests bigamy in my opinion and moreso a betrayal of trust, so the situations are not the same at all o.
“Let me also use this medium to urge Yul to keep his marriages off social media. The regular updates and all are hurting his first wife in more ways than he can imagine and creating the forum for online in-laws to share opinions.”
Yul Edochie who is unashamed of his actions, had listed the several achievements his second marriage brought to his family.
His First wife, May Yul Edochie, had gotten her first endorsement, something that had never happened before the controversy.
He recognized that he had upset his wife in various ways, but he made an earnest apology to her.
Counting his blessings even further, he added that the scandal has increased his celebrity and brought Judy into the forefront.
Human rights activist Omoyele Sowore and several legal practitioners on Monday escorted a Lagos-based National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, Ushie Uguamaye, popularly known as Raye, to the office of her Local Government Inspector (LGI) after she was summoned for a viral video criticizing President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

In a subsequent video, Raye claimed that NYSC officials had begun to threaten her following her public outbursts.
She was then summoned to appear at the NYSC office in Eti-Osa, Lagos, for questioning on Monday.
However, Sowore, alongside legal practitioners including Festus Ogun, Yinka Oyesomi, and Justice Ojienoh, accompanied Raye to the NYSC office in a show of solidarity.
According to an update shared by Sowore on his official X handle, the NYSC officials failed to show up for the meeting.
“We arrived at the Eti-Osa LGI offices of the @officialnyscng with youth corper, Ushie Rita Uguamaye, in Lagos. She was scheduled to appear before the LGI today, and we escorted her to their offices with attorneys.
@mrfestusogun, @yinka_oyesomi, and @justiceojienoh, but the LGI official had absconded, failing to show up throughout our stay,” Sowore posted.

The kidnappers initially rejected the appeal before eventually settling for N20 million.
Confirming their release, Pastor Ajibade Owolanke, brother to the Ejemikin of Akure, High Chief Oluwole Omotayo, said: “The victims have joined their individual family members.”

The demonstrators urged Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa and security agencies to take decisive action against the rising wave of kidnappings in the state.
Security authorities have yet to comment on any arrests related to the incident.
