The controversy surrounding controversial actor turned pastor, Yul Edochie and his first wife, May Edochie has been trending for a while now.

Another case of the couple has emerged. This time, it is a case of bigamy, Yul's alleged marriage to May’s colleague, Judy Austin is a case of Bigamy and this led to the bad blood between Yul and his first wife, May.

Furthermore, a report from Due Process Advocates (DPA) stated that a case of Bigamy was supposed to be taken up against Yul, but May did not give the green light for the case to take off.

According to the law, if the case of Bigamy is taken up against Yul and he is eventually found guilty, he could be sentenced to prison which is the main reason May has refused to take up the case as it could render her children fatherless.

The DPA released a statement stating; “When the case of Yul Edochie came to DPA, we considered filing a complaint with the police and getting the allegation investigated. But when May realised that such a move might result in Yul being arrested and prosecuted and possibly sent to jail, she refused to allow us to proceed. She didn't want her husband and father of her children arrested. Each time bigamy was mentioned, she would ask: "Will they arrest him?" And we would say: "Most likely yes." She would refuse to approve it. You can understand that. Despite what Yul did to her, she didn't want him arrested

The only option left was for May to file for divorce and to sue Judy for damages for adultery. Even at that, she didn't want to rush it. It took until after the death of her child and Yul's subsequent behaviours for her to file for divorce.”

Many Netizens have reacted to the reason May decided not to go for a case of Bigamy against Yul and have praised her for making the right decision.
