Yvonne Jegede’s defense of Yul Edochie’s decision to take a second wife has sparked a complex discussion on the societal perceptions and double standards surrounding polygamy.
In her comments on The Honest Bunch podcast, Jegede argued that she does not see anything inherently wrong with Edochie embracing polygamy and taking a second wife. She pointed out the hypocrisy of people criticizing him, noting that many of them come from families with multiple wives themselves.
Jegede’s stance raises several thought-provoking points:
- Double standards: Jegede highlighted the double standards in how society treats cases of polygamy, citing the example of Ned Nwoko and Regina Daniels, where the former’s multiple marriages seem to be more socially acceptable than Edochie’s.
- Cultural and religious context: Polygamy is practiced in certain cultural and religious contexts, and Jegede’s comments suggest that it may be more normalized in some communities than others. This highlights the need to consider the nuanced societal and personal perspectives on such issues.
- Owning one’s choices: Jegede commended Edochie for “owning his BS with his chest,” implying that he is taking responsibility for his decision, rather than trying to hide it or be hypocritical.
However, Jegede’s stance also raises concerns about the potential implications of polygamy, particularly for the emotional and financial well-being of the involved parties, especially the women and children.

You can never give a woman equal right because they will never treat you same way…. And if you try not to chose trust me your spirit will chose for you.
