Rita Edochie has criticised a wedding MC over viral comments claiming God forgives cheating husbands while wives who cheat would “die and run mad.”
Veteran actress Rita Edochie criticised a wedding MC over viral comments suggesting God forgives cheating husbands but wives who cheat would “die and run mad.”
She argued that if infidelity is considered a sin, it should be judged equally regardless of gender.
Her reaction has added to ongoing conversations online about double standards in marriage and relationships.
Veteran Nollywood actress Rita Edochie has slammed a wedding MC over comments he made about infidelity, describing the remarks as a glaring example of gender inequality in Nigerian society.
Edochie shared the video on her Instagram page on Monday, expressing outrage over what she heard.
In the clip, which was in Igbo, the MC addressed a couple identified as Thomas and Mirable at what appeared to be a marriage-related event. He told the wife that if her husband travelled for months and she cheated on him, she would “die and run mad,” before asking her to say “Amen.”
When he turned to the husband, however, his tone shifted entirely. He told Thomas that if he cheated on his wife, God would forgive him because he did not do it intentionally.
The contrast drew immediate outrage from Edochie.
