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.

The Social Democratic Party (SDP) and the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC) have disclosed details of their recent closed-door meeting with President Bola Tinubu, explaining that the engagement focused on strengthening Nigeria’s democratic process ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Speaking during a gathering hosted in Abuja by the SDP’s former presidential candidate, Adewole Adebayo on Friday, the party’s National Chairman, Prof. Sadiq Gombe, said the meeting with Tinubu followed an official invitation from the Presidency and lasted about an hour.
According to Gombe, the discussion centred on the need to strengthen Nigeria’s electoral laws and restore public confidence in the country’s electoral process ahead of the 2027 polls.
He explained that the meeting provided an opportunity for party leaders to remind the president of the importance of conducting transparent, free, and credible elections.
Gombe noted that democracy can only thrive when governments listen to the concerns of citizens and ensure electoral processes that guarantee fairness and accountability.
The SDP chairman also expressed concern over growing voter apathy, pointing to the low turnout recorded in the recent Area Council election in the Federal Capital Territory.
He said the Abuja Municipal Area Council election witnessed only about seven per cent voter turnout, which he described as a clear sign that many Nigerians are losing confidence in the electoral system.
Gombe urged the government and members of the National Assembly to take urgent steps to review electoral laws and rebuild public trust in Nigeria’s democracy.
Also speaking, the National Chairman of IPAC, Dr. Yusuf Dantalle, said political parties used the meeting to raise concerns about aspects of proposed electoral reforms, particularly issues related to indirect primaries and the mandatory electronic transmission of results.
Dantalle explained that the parties appealed to the president to use his influence to encourage legislative review where necessary, noting that reforms should strengthen, rather than complicate, the democratic process.
He expressed optimism that Tinubu would consider the concerns raised and support necessary amendments that would improve the electoral system.
The IPAC chairman also called on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to strictly adhere to electoral guidelines as preparations for the next election cycle begin.
Earlier in his remarks, Adebayo cautioned political actors against turning the 2027 general elections into a do-or-die contest, stressing that the primary goal of democracy should be the progress and stability of Nigeria rather than personal political victories.
He urged leaders across political parties to encourage citizens to actively participate in the democratic process and ensure that elections are conducted peacefully and transparently.
