May Edochie, the estranged wife of Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie has penned a heartfelt message to Rita Edochie following her recent appointment.
The veteran has been appointed as the new Women Leader/Welfare of members at the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN).
Taking to her Instagram page, May rejoice with her over her new feat as she prayed for more grace and elevation. She stated that whoever the cap fits, should wear it, as she noted how Rita was carefully selected.
“Whoever the cap fits, let him/her wear. This particular one was carefully selected. Congrats, beautiful momma @ritaedochie. More grace and elevations”.
Rita Edochie on her part, had expressed gratitude to the AGN for finding her worthy of the position. She pledge to do her best to keep the flag flying with the help of God.
“Here comes the AGN women leader. I thank the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) for finding me worthy of occupying this position.
As the AGN women leader/welfare of members, I promise to do my best to keep the flag flying with the help of God Almighty.
Together we move on”.
Recall that after the news of Yul Edochie’s marriage to his colleague, Judy Austin broke out, Rita Edochie had stood solidly behind May Edochie, fighting for her in public.
During Mother’s Day last year, Rita Edochie threw a subtle shade at Judy Austin while celebrating May Edochie.
Rita Edochie hailed her as the only wife of the actor, as she stated that any other wife is counterfeit, seemingly referring to Judy Austin.
The sister-in-law of Pete Edochie, had claimed that Yul had hired people from a town in Onitsha to marry Judy Austin. She made this known after Pete Edochie denounced Judy Austin as his son’s wife.
Mocking Judy, she described May as a national treasure who was well married and received in the home, unlike, Judy Austin.
In a follow-up post, she had questioned the audacity of Judy to expect a legally married May to drop her husband’s surname.
Recently, Rita Edochie defended May after Yul publicly dragged, accusing her of cheating on him and going under the knife. Yul claimed that May had undergone a breast enlargement surgery and tummy tuck last year, while pretending to mourn her son. He further slammed her for manipulating the public to bring him down.
Reacting to it, Rita in a lengthy post on her Instagram page accused Judy of using Yul’s influence to convey the lies. She stated that the upcoming actress was displeased with the series of endorsement deals that May has been getting, hence, why she was spreading lies about the mother of three.
