Nollywood actor and filmmaker Yul Edochie has addressed some misconceptions surrounding his public persona.
In a recent interview on his YouTube channel, "Yul Edochie TV," the actor clarified that he is not as controversial as many believe, and that many negative accusations about him are untrue.
Yul Edochie describes himself as personable and humble, valuing his relationships with God and people greatly.
Contrary to popular belief, the father of five stated that he is an introvert who prefers to keep to himself.
Yul Edochie emphasized that he avoids confrontations and does not engage in public conflicts.
He said, “A lot of people have written all sorts of things about me; you know me so 99.9% of what they have written about me is all false. But what can you do? I look at all these things and just ignore them.
“Yul Edochie is a very simple guy, a lot of people don’t know that I’m very down to earth. I love God, I love humanity and I’m also an introvert. A lot of people don’t know that I hardly go out; once in a while, I just go back inside.
“Also, I’m not controversial. Believe me, I am not, people think I am controversial, but I’m not, honestly. Look at the things I do, you won’t see me looking for anyone’s trouble. I don’t call names or call people out or fight anyone. I know, just put things about me and somehow people seem to have a problem with me. Why are they worried about my life?”.
His statement generated mixed reactions as many agreed with him while others objected.
