My Father And I Are Not In Support Of Him-- Uche Edochie

By Ifeanyi

The internet community is still feeling the rendezvous of Yul Edochie decision to polygamy. On this note, his elder brother, Uche Edochie has come to shade some light on the family stance on the matter.

He spoke on the actor's decision to take actress, Judy Austin Moghalu, as a second wife after welcoming a son with her.

In his post, Uche pointed out that his family is not in support of Yul's decision to take a second wife but they cannot make him to do otherwise since he is an adult. He said his family is at this time trying to console his first wife.

Uche also appeal for people not to be quick to judge his brother as women throw themselves at famous people at any give opportunity.

''If the average person walks in Yul's shoes for one year, they will get five or more women pregnant. So don't be quick to judge if you have not lived that life. Most people will do worse.'' he stated.

Edochie went further to thank God for the new child inspite of the surrounding circumstances of his birth.

"So, this is Yul's new baby with his new wife. Beautiful boy. Children are a gift from God. It is the circumstances of their birth that gets us all riled up about what's right and wrong. I wish them all luck. Maybe Yul should become a Muslim and shut this circus down. It is said that life is what happens when we are making other plans. I was minding my own business. And now this. Fantastic.''

He explained that the decision made by his brother is disastrous due to his faith as a Christian, "If he was a Muslim, no one will be talking about this. Muslims marry as many wives as they want and nobody says shit. Traditional rulers and traditionalists of sorts do the same thing too".

Uche is an award winning paint artist with a certificate of Fine Arts from the prestigious University of Nigeria, Nsukka. He is the second son to Sir. Pete Edochie and married to Nkechi Edochie. They are blessed with 3 kids
