Yul Edochie’s first wife, May, has at last responded to his public apologies to her.
May pleaded with him in a lengthy post on her Instagram page to let them resolve their differences in private because she didn’t want their children to witness it as they grew up.
May Edochie reiterates that because polygamy is against her religion, neither she nor anyone else would push her into it.
However, she regards forgiveness as the most beautiful form, and for the sake of her mental stability and inner serenity, she has decided to forgive him.
She said, “I can’t hate anyone,” especially the father of my children. She, however, wouldn’t give in to his demands to be counted in the house they shared.
“I strongly believe that mistakes area major part of human existence. It is our response to these errors that count. I’m 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 were out 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 to 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”.
