Controversial Nollywood actor and gospel preacher, Yul Edochie, has taken to social media to address the issue of disputes and envy that often plague Igbo extended families.
In a post on his Instagram page, Edochie lamented the animosity that exists between relatives, which he attributed to the narratives passed down by their parents.
He observed that most of these long-standing feuds have origins that are sometimes forgotten or lost over time.
Despite the prevalence of rivalry and jealousy in almost every extended Igbo family, Edochie noted that these same individuals do not miss Sunday church services, highlighting the paradoxical nature of their actions.
His words: “Many families, cousins are bearing malice against each other, cos of something their parents told them that the other parents did to them donkey years back. Some can’t even remember the reason for the quarrel. There’s beef and envy in almost every extended family in Igbo land. Yet, every Sunday they’re in Church. Makes no sense.”
