I won’t accept polygamy, May Edochie tells husband

ul Edochie’s first wife, May Edochie, has reacted to her hubby’s public apology for marrying another wife.

She said she would not be compelled to accept polygamy.

Yul, on Wednesday, shared May’s photo, begging her to forgive him for marrying a second wife.

He said he did not intend to replace May.

He claimed he had apologised to her many times for venturing into polygamy.

The father of five reasured his first wife of his unending love for her.

Responding to her hubby, the mother of four said her decision to forgive her hubby was also in a bid to safeguard her mental health and inner peace.

She wrote: “I strongly believe that mistakes are a major part of human existence. It is our response to these errors that count.

“In other words, forgiveness is one thing, and righting a wrong is another.

“FORGIVENESS is the highest | most beautiful form of love for me.

“There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.

“Hence, my ability to forgive the mistakes of the past, present, and future with respect to the issue on ground is in the interest of my mental health and inner peace.

“I decided to stick to love… Hate is too great a burden to bear.

“I am still very much incapable of HATING anyone, let alone the father of my children.

“The fact remains that anyone can choose to practice POLYGAMY, but can’t be impelled to accept what was never bargained for.

“To reaffirm my stands, I will not be CAJOLED into accepting polygamy, which goes against my beliefs, faith, and values.

“I will not be NUMBERED in a home that we started building with love, faith, tears, hopes, and prayers in a CATHOLIC marriage of 18 years following a long term premarital relationship.

“This is also a passionate appeal to put an END to the constant ‘show’ on the social media space where our kids are growing into unless it is absolutely necessary.

“Let’s prevent our lovely children from all the incessant drama series that might take a toll on them directly or indirectly amongst their peers.

“May GOD in His infinite mercy and compassion guide us all in the right direction.

“Merry Christmas in advance everyone!”
