Recall that months back, Yul Edochie, who is also an actor, got many Nigerians talking after he married a second wife.
In a recent interview with Vanguard News, Pete Edochie, shared that his son Yul goes controversial most times so he could have a lot of followers on social media.
Pete Edochie simply said:
“HE’S INTO SHOW BUSINESS AND HE TRIES TO CREATE CONTROVERSIES AROUND HIMSELF.
THAT’S WHY HE HAS A LOT OF FOLLOWERS ON SOCIAL MEDIA.”
The interviewer continued: But why does it seem Yul is a child after your heart?
His response:
“ALL MY CHILDREN ARE AFTER MY HEART.
WHATEVER THEY DO I AM STILL THEIR FATHER, AND I AM VERY CLOSE TO ALL OF THEM.
I DON’T HAVE A FAVOURITE ONE. AND I DIDN’T RAISE THEM LIKE THAT.
WHATEVER YOU FIND IN MY HOUSE IS ACCESSIBLE TO ALL OF THEM.
I DON’T CONTEST THEIR CHOICES WITH THEM.
IF ANY THEM MEETS A GIRL AND HE’S IN LOVE WITH HER AND HE WANTS TO MARRY HER, LET THAT PERSON GO AHEAD AND DO SO.
I GAVE THEM THE NECESSARY EDUCATION THEY REQUIRE TO STAND ON THEIR OWN.
I BOUGHT A CAR FOR EACH ONE OF THEM WHEN THEY GRADUATED FROM THE UNIVERSITY.”
