Comedian AY Makun has debunked an alleged affair with May Yul-Eodchie, wife of actor Yul Edochie.
The accusation was made by a content creator named Agozi Samuel who goes by the name Agozi Commedy on Facebook.
Agozi claimed AY is the reason May and Yul are having trouble in their marriage.
But in a petition dated January 24, AY through his lawyers, described the allegation as baseless and untrue. He also urged the Delta State Police to arrest the content creator. whom he accused of criminal defamation and cyberstalking.
The petition read in parts: “The said publication alleges that our client is involved in an extramarital affair with one May Eodchie, the wife of Yul Eodchie and that our client was responsible for the marital crisis between May and her husband.
“For the purpose of clarity, the exact false baseless and untrue statement knowingly and intentionally made at several intervals by Agozi Samuel in the said video are reproduced as follows; ‘You slept with May. Because of you, Yul Eodchie and his wife separated because you’re having an affair with Yul Edochie’s wife which is May.
“‘The general public did not know what is happening even the court case that is going on, the general public did not know. I told you on 31st night that in 2024, I will bring you down in 2024. I will be the one to bring you down. For you to bring down a home that lasted for many years, you made them separated, you made the wife live differently and the husband. What are you looking for in somebody’s wife that your wife does not have?” Your plan now is to go and marry May. I know all the plans you want to go and marry May. You think I don’t know.’”
