The news of Yul Edochie taking a second wife has sparked debate on his ability to be Nigeria’s president.

The Nollywood actor on Wednesday shocked fans after announced the existence of his son by his second wife, Judy Austin Muoghalu.

He wrote: “It’s time for the world to meet my son. His name is STAR DIKE MUNACHIMSO YUL-EDOCHIE.

“Born by my second wife @judyaustin1 And I love him so much, just as much as I love my other children.”

The senior wife of Edochie, who has five children for him, took to the comment section writing: “May God judge you both.”

This has since stirred reactions online as Edochie had once hailed his first wife for standing by him for 16 years while he was struggling.

However, this news didn’t sit well with many Nigerians who dimmed him unfit to be president and take control of affairs of the country.

Edochie had on his 40th birthday in January said his wish was to become the next president of Nigeria.

Here are the comments gathered by DAILY POST from Twitter;

@Uramah “Yul Edochie has failed us all (Nigerians). How can we vote for someone that is not faithful in marriage? A man that can’t stick to one woman is not fit to become Nigeria’s president. He should go and rest and also fit in his home.”

@KingArthurOG “ Yul Edochie promised us he was running for president, election season has arrived and all he’s declared is a new wife and new baby…

Congrats to all involved.”

@AsaOdogwu “Yul Edochie should not think of coming out to contest for president, because Maka chi he will fail.My respect for him has dropped to zero level.”

@NaijaRadfem “Someone like Yul Edochie that has clearly shown that he is a cheat with no integrity will ruin and steal from Nigeria if he becomes President.Vote for him at your own peril.”

@O_ssai “Yul Edochie was doing well for his quest to become Nigeria’s president until today.A rising star has been dimmed. This is a loss for Nigeria.”

@ItsTosin “I can’t believe that Yul Edochie can do this to his first wife. So he actually has a second wife hidden for a very long time. And he’s aspiring to become Nigeria President in near future. This world is crazy. See his newborn baby and his first wife comment.”

@QueenEhi “And Yul Edochie said he wants to be Nigerian president, vote for him next thing you know he go carry Ghana join Nigeria, a very insatiable, unfaithful and disrespectful man. A man without integrity, his long throat is too much.”

@ObidilIfeanyi “How to solve the rate of unemployment and the rate of unmarried women,That’s when Yul Edochie comes in as the president.”

@MrMfonO “This is the height of irresponsibility. Yul Edochie betrayed May that stood by him through thick and thin.This betrayal stands condemned .As we roast Yul, let’s not forget the lady that gave herself to a married man. And he’s contesting to be president,Shame!

@Analysts_ “Yul Edochie can now forget about being President of Nigeria.He should focus on his first and second wife, they need him more than Nigeria.”

@MrJay “Yul Edochie with a “controversial” second wife. When he becomes president, he may now add a third, fourth or even fifth. Sai Baba Yul.”

@PeterBenjamin “Yul Edochie don flog ‘Not too Young to Run’ Oraimo cord for neck.See our incoming president na. He just gave us his manifesto in manifestation.”

Oscar-winning Actress Diane Keaton Dead At 79 – Report

Actress Diane Keaton, known for her Oscar-winning performance in 1977’s “Annie Hall” and her role in “The Godfather” films, has died at age 79, People magazine reported Saturday.

Details were not immediately available, and Keaton’s loved ones have asked for privacy, a family spokesperson told People, which confirmed that the actress died in California.

Keaton, a style icon, was a frequent collaborator of director Woody Allen, portraying the titular character in “Annie Hall,” the charming girlfriend of Allen’s comic Alvy Singer.

The film also garnered Oscars for best picture, best director and best original screenplay, cementing Keaton’s place as one of the industry’s top actresses and an offbeat style icon as well.

The actress made her mark co-starring in eight Allen movies, from “Play in Again Sam” (1972) to “Manhattan” (1979) and “Manhattan Murder Mystery” (1993).

As the Hollywood sexual harassment scandals detonated in late 2017, cascading from producer Harvey Weinstein to heavyweight actors like Kevin Spacey, old accusations of child sex abuse against Allen by his adoptive daughter Dylan, resurfaced.

“Woody Allen is my friend and I continue to believe him,” Keaton tweeted in January 2018.

A BAFTA and Golden Globe winner, Keaton scored Oscar nominations three other times for best actress, for “Reds,” “Marvin’s Room” and “Something’s Gotta Give.”

In “The Godfather” films, she played Kay Adams, the girlfriend and eventual wife of Al Pacino’s Michael Corleone.

Late in her career, Keaton starred in two movies about ageing women: “Book Club” (2018), with its message that love has no age, and “Poms” (2019).

“Poms” is the story of Martha, a terminally ill woman who moves to a retirement community to die, but winds up forming a cheerleading squad made up of female senior citizens.

As for ageing, Keaton said in a 2019 interview with AFP that life actually got easier.

“I think so, because what have you got to lose? It’s like it’s the truth. That’s what it is. You face it, we talk about it,” she said.

Born Diane Hall in Los Angeles on January 5, 1946, Keaton was romantically involved with Allen, Pacino and Warren Beatty, but never married.

“Most people in the movies get married at some point, and then they divorce. But I’ve never even got married. I am (a) failure,” she joked in the 2019 interview.

Did she regret it? “I don’t think about it a lot, but I’m aware of the fact that I’m unusual in that regard, and maybe I did miss out on something — but then, nobody can have everything, right?”

She is survived by her two children, Dexter and Duke.

Afrobeats singer, Tiwa Savage has denied allegations of sabotaging other female artists in the music industry.

She challenged those accusing her of sabotaging her colleagues to mention their sources and come forward with evidence.

Recall that a few years ago Kenyan singer, Victoria Kimani, accused Tiwa Savage of indirectly blocking her from performing at several shows.

Reacting in a recent episode of the Offair Show, Tiwa Savage explained that she was being wrongly accused of sabotaging the chances of other female artistes to get bookings, claiming that show promoters could be lying to other artists using her name.

“If you’ve heard from anybody that I tried to block your bag, mention names. Maybe the promoters are lying and using me, maybe they don’t want to book three, four girls. So, they claim I am the one blocking others,” Savage said.
