Nollywood actress, Sarah Martins, has sparked controversy by giving her opinion on the ongoing family drama with actor Yul Edochie.
The actress who is friends with Yul Edochie’s second wife, Judy Austin, posted videos on Instagram showing a woman defending the practice of African men taking numerous wives.
Sarah Martins accompanied the videos with a lengthy caption that netizens have assumed to be aimed at Yul Edochie’s wife, May Edochie.
In her caption, she recounted her own personal experience of leaving her marriage after discovering her ex-husband’s infidelity with an older woman.
Sarah Martins revealed that she had wed her ex-husband as a virgin at the age of 19 only to experience betrayal later.
She suggested that rather than making it a point of contention, women who are unable to accept their partners having numerous wives should leave the relationship and follow her own example.
She wrote;
“This woman is a confirmed realist! The only woman that spits facts upon facts!
I analyzed same thing but biased Nigerians that refused to learn and understand how these things work criticized and bullied me for speaking the truth. My ex cheated with someone 25years older than me and because I refused to share what I thought was all mine, I chose to peacefully walk away.
I had no right to tell an African man not to be African so I took a walk. If you don’t want to be numbered, you take a walk! You can’t claim to love and respect the father of your kids and watch different people insult and ridicule him right in your very eyes.
A second wife is not the problem! Bigamy is a scam in Nigeria so stop threatening an African man with Bigamy. I moved on in peace without gathering pity party despite being married at 19yrs as a virgin.
Yes, my love was betrayed and I felt betrayed and used especially when I worked hard to remain decent for my future husband.
And when I finally married the husband of my youth, he fell out of love with me and went for an older woman.
What did I do???
I moved the hell on “in peace”’!!!! Did it stop me from giving love a second chance? Hell NO!!! In my 31yrs of age, my body count is not up to 5! So I’m still very much hot, active and juicy…..it’s his loss not mine!!”
