The ongoing family drama involving Nollywood stars Yul Edochie and Judy Austin has taken another emotional turn as Emmanuel Obasi, Judy’s former husband, responded to Yul's recent remarks about their long-running dispute.

Obasi had alleged that he had been denied access to his children.

However, Yul Edochie dismissed the claims, insisting he had never prevented anyone from seeing their children and accusing Obasi of taking his grievances to social media instead of addressing them privately.

But Obasi appears unwilling to let the matter rest.

In a Facebook post shared on June 19, Obasi laid bare his frustrations, claiming he had repeatedly tried to reconnect with his children but had been unsuccessful.

While acknowledging Yul Edochie’s influence and reputation, Obasi suggested that his concerns should not be dismissed.

"Chief Yul Edochie, one thing for sure Edochie is a big name beyond Igbo land no doubt, but you can not beat a child and ask him not to cry," he wrote.

According to him, his public comments were never intended to embarrass anyone. Instead, he claimed they came after several private efforts failed.

Obasi alleged that Judy Austin had blocked every avenue through which he could communicate with her.

"My aim is not to ridicule anyone, I reached out and warned but was ignored. She block all my access to her," he stated.
