Nollywood actor and filmmaker Yul Edochie is backing Afrobeats legend Innocent “2Baba” Idibia as he deals with public criticism regarding his failing marriage to Annie Idibia.

Yul, familiar with controversy, passionately defended 2Baba, igniting lively debates on social media.

For nearly three years, Yul has faced constant public attention, both on the internet and in real life, after his shocking cheating scandal damaged the reputation of his previously beloved marriage to May Edochie.

His relationship with Judy Austin, who was once his colleague and is now his only wife, caused a stir on social media, making him a target for criticism.

Yul and Judy continue to be criticized, particularly after May’s brave choice to part ways with him.

At this time, as 2baba goes through his own challenges, Yul seems to find a connection with the troubled artist.

The “African Queen” singer, whose 13-year marriage to Annie Idibia was marked by controversies such as infidelity rumors and emotional challenges, has recently announced that their marriage has ended. He mentioned that he and Annie have been living apart for some time, and divorce is now likely.

The news shook the entertainment world, with fans and some stars criticizing 2Baba for not keeping his promises to Annie after all their challenges together. However, Yul Edochie was not going to let it slide.

On 31st of January, he took to social media with a fierce message, passionately defending 2Baba and cursing those who were judging him.

In a post, Yul attacked his critics, asking what gives them the right to comment on another man’s marriage.

Yul Edochie wrote, “Anybody insulting 2Baba or calling him out because of his family matter that does not concern you, THUNDER FIRE YOU!!!”
