A few weeks back, Yul had expressed pride in his friend of over 20 years, Uche Nancy. Sharing photos of him and the filmmaker, he described her as his paddy; he noted how he knew her when she was just a costume designer, to a producer, and now she is an Executive producer. The actor praised her for her hard work and resilience.
Similarly, Yul hailed his colleague Jerry Amilo as they linked up after many years. The movie star shared a video of him and the actor while expressing joy at working with him on a project. Yul stated that he has so much respect for Jerry, as they made so many hit movies together.
The father of three, while in Abuja, had linked up with popular Northern actor Ali Nuhu on a movie set. In a video of them, Yul gushes over how he is getting fresher every day, which leaves him speechless.
The controversial actor also hailed another of his colleagues, Jerry Williams, amid his battle with drugs. Edochie called Jerry the pride of Africa, declaring nobody could take his crown. Sending well wishes to him, he urged the actor to come back stronger and prayed for God to guide him always.
A year back, Yul had spoken out about his life-changing experience with Charles Inojie, revealing the level of impact he had played in his movie career. Yul praised him for always being so cool and nice to everyone and credited him for playing a role in his career path.
While celebrating Olu Jacobs at 80, Yul eulogized the veteran. He noted how his biggest wish was to be on set with the legendary actor, and revealed that he finally got the opportunity many times and he learned so much from him.
