Veteran Nollywood actress Rita Edochie has criticised an event MC over comments he made about infidelity in marriage, describing the remarks as unfair to women.

Edochie reacted to a video she shared on Instagram on Monday which showed a MC addressing a couple identified as Thomas and Mirable during what appeared to be a marriage-related event.

In the clip which was in Igbo lanaguage, the MC told the wife that if her husband travelled for months and she cheated on him, she would “die and run mad,” before asking her to respond with “Amen.” However, when speaking to the husband, Thomas, he said that if he cheated on his wife, “God will forgive him because he did not do it intentionally.”

The comments sparked outrage from the actress, who said she hoped the video was merely a joke or social media content.
