Veteran actor Pete Edochie and the father of renowned actor Yul Edochie, joined family, colleagues, and fans to celebrate his son Yul Edochie's 43rd birthday.

The Nollywood icon shared a picture of Yul dressed in traditional attire and penned a very short but deep message as he celebrates his son's birthday.

He captioned the picture, "Happy birthday Son @yuledochie," adding a heart emoji.

Pete Edochie's birthday wish came amidst the criticism surrounding Yul's older brother, Linc's, birthday post.

Linc earlier shared a birthday post that got some netizens talking. They believed the picture used was too taunting for a birthday post.

In addition to family celebrations, Yul's second wife, actress Judy Austin, also shared a touching message for her husband on his special day.
