Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie has ignited criticism on social media following a post celebrating film industry colleague, TC Okafor.
Okafor is one of the survivors of a recent boat accident on River Naija that tragically claimed the life of actor Junior Pope.
In an instagram post, Yul Edochie congratulated TC Okafor on surviving the accident.
He expressed his belief that the actor will achieve “countless victories in Nollywood and life.”
“I celebrate your survival, bro
@tcokafor
I celebrate your life.
You will record countless victories in Nollywood and life.
May God lead you always & may your ancestors stand by you”. He wrote.
However, Edochie’s decision to focus on Okafor’s survival, without acknowledging Junior Pope’s passing, has drawn outrage from many netizens.
Comment sections are flooded with accusations that Edochie’s silence regarding Pope stems from a personal conflict, possibly fueled by Edochie’s recent marital controversy.
Some people directly alleged that Edochie harbors resentment because Jnr Pope did not support his choice to marry a second wife.
