Veteran Nollywood actress Rita Edochie has condemned a wedding MC over what she described as blatant gender inequality after a video from a wedding ceremony sparked heated debate online.
In the viral clip, the MC asked the bride, identified as Mirabel, to vow never to cheat on her husband, even if he travelled for a long time. He then prayed that she would face severe consequences should she ever be unfaithful.
However, when addressing the groom, Thomas, the MC simply said that if he cheated, “may God forgive him”, a remark that has drawn criticism for appearing to excuse male infidelity.
Reacting on Instagram, Edochie expressed outrage, saying she hoped the video was merely a skit or content created for social media.
“I am very angry this morning, and I pray this is just a joke and content,” she wrote.
