May Edochie, the estranged wife of Nollywood actor Yul Edochie, has filed a lawsuit at the Lagos high court over the alleged leak of her private information and a sustained campaign of online harassment.
The suit, marked LD/10737GCM/2026, was filed through her lawyers Jessica Egbafor and Esther Fijo of Greylaw Partners against Emeka Ugwuonye, her former lawyer, Yinka Omolola Theisen, former partner of Yul’s brother Linc Edochie, and unidentified operators of several social media accounts.
The defendants are accused of cyberbullying, harassment, and defamation.
The legal action follows earlier cease-and-desist notices issued by May through her lawyers in September 2025 to Ugwuonye and Theisen over allegations of cyberbullying, cyberstalking, and defamation.
In those notices, she demanded the removal of alleged defamatory publications, public retractions, and apologies on all platforms where the statements appeared. She also sought N1 billion in damages from Ugwuonye and N500 million from Theisen over the alleged harm to her reputation
