May, the estranged wife of actor Yul Edochie, has filed for divorce from him.
The wife, who is being represented by Femi Falana and Eculaw Group, is also demanding for N100m in damages.
This is from Yul and his second wife, Judy, who she accused of adultery.
The DPA Family Law Clinic, which shared an update on the couple’s marital crisis, noted that Judy and Yul are aware of the lawsuit, having received copies of the papers by email.
It was also alleged that both Yul and Judy are avoiding service of the process upon them.
The court bailiff was said to have attempted several times to serve them in accordance with the rules of court.
But they have evaded service of court process, the firm claimed, adding: “Despite the braggadocio and the social media stunts, Yul Edochie and Judy are facing serious legal challenges and they seem ill-prepared for them, given the fact that they have been evading service of process.”
May has also filed for an order of court restraining Yul from accessing their former matrimonial home.
The businesswoman, who cited safety concerns, alleged that the actor has been erratic, irrational, aggressive and increasingly threatening.

She noted that Yul acts like he is “under some influence, the full extent or scope of which we are yet to ascertain”.
May, who recalled how Yul was stopped from accessing their home last week by security officials who told him that henceforth all issues involving his marriage to her and dealings in that regard are subjudice, stated that she has taken the measure to protect herself and her children.
