My father is still alive – Yul Edochie

As the internet was agog few days ago with a story that veteran actor, Pete Edochie had passed on, his actor son, Yul, has come out to debunk the news, saying that his father is still very much alive.

Eulogizing his father on his Facebook wall, Yul said he is sure his father would live more than 100 years, despite what the rumour mongers say.

He said, “ Nwokeeee! The Lion of Africa. My man for life. Ezigbo mmadu. You will definitely live beyond 100 years.”

Yul further admonished those carrying the false news as he reiterated that the legendary Pete Edochie is still alive.

“To the public, disregard any false news saying Chief Pete Edochie passed away. The Lion of Africa is fully alive, hail and hearty.”
