Emerging facts show that Yul Edochie’s second wife Judy Austin was traditionally considered to still be married to her first husband before having a baby with the Veteran Nollywood Actor Yul Edochie.
Source says that the dowry from the first Marriage was not returned before a fresh dowry is paid; traditionally making Mr. Obasi, Judy Austin’s first husband the legitimate father of the child.
Pope Tony Obinna Amaefuna wrote:
“In Igboland, A Child Is Considered To Belong To The Man Who Paid the Bride Price On A Woman’s Head Irrespective Of Who The Biological Father Is.
“Yul Edochie Obviously Snatched Another Man’s Wife And Had A Child With The Woman While The Woman Was Traditionally Considered To Still Be Married To Her First Husband.
“According To Mr. Obasi, It Wasn’t Until Recently The Dowry From The First Marriage Was Returned To Him By Proxy So That A Fresh Dowry was Paid.
“Can Mr. Obasi Lay Legitimate Claims To This Child?
“If He Can’t, Where Does This Leave Our Reverend Igbo Tradition?
“People Who Understand Igbo Tradition And Culture Should Help Me Out Here.”
