Veteran entertainer and activist Charly Boy, popularly known as the Area Father, has responded to Nollywood actor Yul Edochie’s recent statement advocating for a South-Easterner to become Nigeria’s next president.

Edochie’s position marks a notable shift from his earlier support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.

In a trending video shared on X (formerly Twitter), Edochie emphasized the need for fairness and equity in Nigeria’s political landscape, stating, “The next President of Nigeria should come from the South East. In fairness and equity. That’s just the truth. That’s how it supposed to be.”
