Yul Edochie, the Nigerian actor, has reacted to criticism of his relationship with Judy Austin.
In an Instagram post on Wednesday, Edochie shared a loved-up photo of himself and his second wife.
The movie star also taunted critics, arguing that he and Austin’s happiness “is causing discomfort to them”.
Edochie alleged that some people are fabricating lies about them and even “paying to spread falsehoods”.
“Our progress and happiness dey pain so many people. It’s giving them sleepless nights. That’s why they keep coming up with all sorts of lies against us, now they’re paying people to lie against us,” he wrote in pidgin and English.
“Una never see anything. Una go talk tire. When you talk finish, you hug transformer. Our matter go send all of una go hospital.
“The spiritual forces standing with us are too powerful. You can’t bring us down.,If you try, you’ll go down.And when your downfall comes, just remember you brought it upon yourself.”
Although he did not mention names, his post comes a few days after Emmanuel Obasi, Austin’s former husband, called her out.
On Monday, Obasi claimed the actress has denied him access to their children for 10 years.
He lamented that the situation has severely affected his well-being and concentration.
In July 2023, Judy said her previous marriage had been dissolved many years before she met Edochie.
Yul unveiled Judy as his second wife in April 2022.
The announcement sparked controversies, leading May Edochie, Yul’s first wife, to file for divorce.
