Veteran actress Rita Edochie has come out to tackle her relative Yul Edochie for accusing his estranged wife, May, of refusing to return the bride price he paid at their marriage.
Recall that Yul recently called out May for seeking a divorce while still using his surname and not returning the bride price he paid to her family during their wedding. Read here
In response to his accusation, Rita, who is married to Pete Edochie’s brother, revealed that May had asked Yul to come and collect the bride price, but he kept holding back because he thought she would give in to his polygamous plan.
She added that Yul started intensifying pressure to collect the bride price after May filed for a divorce in court, which cannot work because no decision can be taken outside the court’s jurisdiction.
Speaking further, the 59-year-old thespian opined that Yul’s second wife, Judy, is the one behind his call-out posts against May, as she has hell bent on bringing him down.
Her post reads,
“BIA DRAMA DEV!L SH#T THE HECK UP!
I SAID SH#T UP, ZIP UP YOUR LYING MOUTH …
DRAMA DEV!L YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW THE TRADITION , BECAUSE IF YOU DO, YOU WOULD HAVE REASONED APPROPRIATELY BEFORE WRITING THOSE JARGONS,
A WOMAN HAS NO RIGHT TO RETURN THE BRIDE PRICE OF A MAN RATHER IT IS THE MAN WHO MOVES TO THE WOMAN’S HOMETOWN WITH HIS KINSMEN TO ASK FOR THE RETURN OF THE BRIDE PRICE, SAME WAY HE WENT TO PAY INITIALLY.
WELL AM NOT SURPRISED AT ALL THAT YOU DO NOT KNOW THE TRADITION, AFTER ALL YOU WERE PICKED BY OGBOMMANU ONITSHA WHO WERE HIRED TO JOIN IN PAYING YOUR BRIDE PRICE .
HOW YOU WANT TAKE SABI??
NOW TALKING ABOUT THE RETURN OF BRIDE PRICE, NO ONE IS READY FOR THAT AT THE MOMENT, MUCH AS I KNOW YOU ARE THE ONE PUSHING HIM JUST TO ENSURE YOU TAKE OVER COMPLETELY.
THE REASON IS THIS, QUEEN MAY HAS BEEN ASKING FOR A DIVORCE, SHE URGED YUL OUR SON TO COME RETRIEVE THE BRIDE PRICE BUT HE KEPT HOLDING BACK THINKING QUEEN MAY WOULD LATER GIVE IN TO HIS POLYGAMOUS INTENTIONS.
NOT UNTIL LATE LAST YEAR WHEN THE MATTER WAS TAKEN TO COURT, ONLY THEN DID HE START DEMANDING THE BRIDE PRICE WHICH YOU HAVE BEEN PUSHING HIM TO DO.
THE UNFORTUNATE THING IS THAT THIS MATTER IS NOW IN FULL CUSTODY OF THE COURT AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE TILL THE CASE IS OVER IN COURT.
SO I REPEAT, NO BRIDE PRICE CAN BE RETURNED EXCEPT WITH CONSENT AND ORDER FROM THE COURT …SO YOU HAVE TO WAIT TILL WHENEVER.
KPI-CHI-KOM
I THOUGHT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE EDUCATED….. DRAMA DEV!L, THIS MATTER IS ALREADY IN COURT AND MUST NOT BE ADDRESSED ON THE SOCIAL MEDIA SPACE OR ANYWHERE ELSE BUT YOU’RE BUSY WRITING ALL THOSE BALDERDASH BECAUSE YOU ARE TOO DAFT, THE PERSON THAT KNOWS, CANNOT WRITE THIS BECAUSE HE KNOWS THE IMPLICATIONS.
BUT I SEE YOU’RE BENT ON BRINGING YUL DOWN,
SETTING HIM UP FOR ONLINE DRAGS AS WELL AS COMPLICATING ISSUES FOR HIM IN COURT.
STOP ACTING LIKE YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT IS OBTAINABLE.
LEAVE YUL ALONE, LEAVE HIM FOR GOOD, STOP TARNISHING HIS REPUTATION WITH THESE YOUR IRRELEVANT POSTS THROUGH HIS SOCIAL MEDIA PAGES
STOP SETTING HIM UP FOR TROLLS.
REST DRAMA DEV!L OBASI
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
I AM STILL WAITING FOR YOU TO COME OUT AND TALK TO ME DIR”
