Rita Edochie defends May Edochie against backlash over son’s posthumous birthday
Veteran Nollywood actress,Rita Edochie, has clapped back at critics over the backlash against May Edochie on her son, Kambilichukwu’s posthumous birthday.
Earlier, May Edochie’s estranged husband, Yul Edochie, recently marked their son’s posthumous birthday with a poignant tribute in a recent Facebook post.
However, May’s decision not to publicly acknowledge her son on social media sparked curiosity and backlash from netizens, prompting Rita Edochie to address the controversy in an Instagram post.
Rita Edochie cited Yul Edochie’s actions following Kambilichukwu’s passing, privately mourning and moving on through social media.

Her post reads,”WHEN KAMBILI MY GREAT GENIUS OF A SON PASSED ON , HIS DEAR FATHER CHOSE HOW TO MOURN HIM , HE SPENT TIME IN PRIVATE MOURNING HIM , THEN BOUNCED BACK TO SOCIAL MEDIA TO FORGE AHEAD WITH HIS LIFE , YOU ALL COMPLAINED ABOUT IT AND LATER GAVE A CONCLUSION THAT A MAN OF 40 YEARS AND ABOVE MUST NOT BE TOLD HOW TO MOURN”.
“LAST WEEK WAS KAMBILI’S TWO YEARS OF EARTHLY DEPARTURE AND YOU MESSED UP NETIZENS ARE NOW TRYING TO LECTURE QUEEN MAY ON HOW TO MOURN HER OWN FLESH AND BLOOD ? “.
“DO YOU TELL A WOMAN AS VIRTUOUS AS QUEEN MAY WHAT TO DO AND WHAT NOT TO DO ON THE REMEMBRANCE DAY OF HER SON ?”.
“ON THE DAY KAMBILI WAS REMEMBERED, QUEEN MAY WAS ABSENT FROM THE MEDIA SPACE , SHE DIDN’T POST NOR STAYED ACTIVE”.
