Yul Edochie defends Mbaise people over misconception by many
In a recent Instagram post, the actor addressed the negative rumors suggesting that people should fear those from Mbaise. He urged the rumor-mongers to stop, sharing his own positive experiences with the Mbaise community.
Edochie mentioned that all the Mbaise people he has encountered have been kind to him. He recalled filming in Mbaise and described the hospitality he received as exceptional.
“I don’t know who started this ‘Fear Mbaise people’ idea, and why, it should stop. I must say, all the Mbaise people I’ve met in my life have been so good to me. When I filmed in Mbaise, the hospitality I received was awesome. Mbaise people have been very good to me.”
I say it everywhere”.
Last week, Yul credited himself as the originator of the name, Nwunye Odogwu. He noted how, in 2022, he launched the name by using it to praise his second wife, Judy Austin. Now, the name has become popular, and many have adopted it.
He noted how those still looking for a husband use the name as he prayed for them and admonished Nigerians to give him credit.
