In a post shared on Instagram, Maduagwu questioned May’s continued silence, suggesting that her refusal to speak out might be seen as silent approval of the backlash Yul faces.
While acknowledging that she can’t control every fan’s actions, he insisted that as Yul’s legally wedded wife, May has a moral obligation to urge her supporters to show restraint. His statement has since sparked mixed reactions across social media.
He said, “The May nation knows that their Queen May is still legally married to Yul Edochie, yet they come online and ridicule him, insult him and say rubbish about his family name on social media, is that a respect to una Queen May? Make una fear God.
“And honestly I don’t blame those people for ridiculing Yul Edochie. I blame Queen May because you know that you are still legally married to this man, yet some people gathered together on social media to be insulting, ridiculing and talking bad about your husband and you have never for one day made a post and said please don’t insult him. He is still my husband we are not legally divorced.
“If you know you are not willing to tell all those your fans to stop insulting your husband, you have to remove that name because some people are saying it’s the Edochie name that is giving you favour and endorsement. Infact I challenge you Queen May prove to Nigerians that you’re a Christian woman and you respect your legally married husband, tell your fans to stop ridiculing him”
