Nigerians attack celebrities instead of government – Yul Edochie

Yul Edochie

Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, says many Nigerians unleash anger caused by the government on celebrities.

The 37-year-old said in a tweet on Friday that he too was angry at the government but does not understand why celebrities are attacked and not the government.  

“Many Nigerians are angry with the government, which is very understandable. (Me too) But rather than channel the anger to the government they vent it on celebrities. That’s the part I’m yet to understand,” he said.

Yul survived an auto crash in June 2019 on his way from Lagos to the southeastern part of the country. He said afterwards that the encounter brought him close to God.

In the last quarter of 2019, the actor said he has been called to do pastoral work.

It is unclear when Yul intends to begin his pastoral calling.
