Veteran Nollywood actress Rita Edochie has disclosed a warning her father-in-law gave her before he passed on.
Speaking via her social media account, the actress who is an aunt to Yul Edochie revealed that her late father-in-law, Odogwu Sylvester Edochie, gave her some words of advice some years back when he warned her against hiring ‘mature house helps’.
According to the thespian, the late Edochie vehemently warned her against employing grown up women as this could lead to polygamy which he was vehemently against. 
Rita Edochie who at the time said her husband won’t ever cheat on her added that she never knew his grandchild (Yul Edochie), would be the one to break his grandfather’s legacy, which has been upheld by elders before him.
She wrote, “A WORD OF ADVICE FROM MY LATE FATHER, INLAW MAZI EJIMOFOR ODOGWU SYLVESTER EDOCHIE.
