Popular Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has applauded his father, a colleague and veteran actor, Pete Edochie, for the discipline he has bestowed upon his children while they were young.
The actor who shared a photo of his father on his Instagram page on Wednesday, October 27, 2021, stated that his father strictness made him and his siblings strong.
According to his post, Yul narrated a situation where his father’s presence forced them to take drugs as kids.
He said, “Those days as kids when we had malaria, my mum could spend so long petting and begging you to take your Nivaquine drugs which were very bitter then.
“When that style no works, she’ll now send someone to go call Popsi.
“Omo, once my Dad comes into the room, standing at the door staring at you with his mean face and his belt in hand, bros you go rush your drugs instantly and be happy after taking them.
“And once he’s around, you must take your drugs with water, no matter how bitter it is, No drink for you, just water.
“Popsi was strict to a fault. He no gets time to pet you oo. No-nonsense man. Those days we dey fear am. Now I appreciate him so much.
“He made us tough. Ebubedike 1 of Africa @peteedochie. I love this man., My man, forever.” (sic)
Yul had earlier revealed his intentions to run for President in the forthcoming 2023 general elections, and his father has drummed up support for him.
