- The controversy surrounding Yul Edochie’s marriage to his first wife shows no signs of abating.
- May’s lawyer has intensified the situation with new, pointed statements targeting not only Yul but also those who support his decision to take a second wife, including actress Yvonne Jegede.
- The lawyer drew a stark contrast between Yul and Ned Nwoko, emphasizing that while Nwoko responsibly provides for his family, Yul has failed to do so, even going so far as to neglect his children’s school fees
Emeka Ugwuonye, the founder of the DPA Organization and the legal representative for May Edochie in her divorce from actor Yul Edochie, has strongly condemned Yul for allegedly abandoning his responsibilities towards his children.
Ugwuonye’s sharp rebuke of Yul Edochie was triggered by a recent episode of media personality Nedu Wazobia’s “Honest Bunch” podcast.
During the episode, actress Yvonne Jegede defended Yul, expressed her bewilderment at why Ned Nwoko, another polygamist like Yul, garners significant support while Yul is constantly criticized for taking a second wife.
In a scathing new video, May Edochie’s lawyer fired back, underscoring the stark differences between Yul Edochie and Ned Nwoko.
He accused Yul of halting the payment of his children’s school fees, a responsibility that Ned, in contrast, consistently fulfills. This dereliction of duty, he argued, is a key reason why Yul faces relentless criticism while Ned enjoys widespread support.
Ugwuonye alleged that Yul, when approached by his daughter Danielle for school fees, callously told her that her mother, May, who purportedly earns more than him, should shoulder the financial burden.
The attorney said, on the contrary, Ned not only covers his children’s school fees but also assumes financial responsibility for various household expenses.

Yul Edochie in 2022, took a second wife, Judy Austin, against the wish of his first wife May.
May noted that she would not be counted and this did not go down well with Yul who continued to flaunt Judy.
Consequently, they have since been residing apart and initiating divorce proceedings.
