• Yul Edochie clarified that the rumors are untrue and emphasized the importance of verifying information before sharing.

Actor Yul Edochie has addressed the recent false rumours claiming that his father, legendary actor Pete Edochie, had passed away.

The misinformation started when an X user shared a fabricated story suggesting that Pete Edochie was dead and that Yul had confirmed it on Instagram.

The claim was quickly disproven, with both Pete Edochie and his family assuring the public that the veteran actor is alive and in good health.

On his Instagram account, Yul posted a striking photo of his father along with a heartfelt message celebrating his life and legacy.

He referred to Pete as “The Lion of Africa” and described him as his lifelong role model and an “Ezigbo mmadu,” which means a genuinely good person. Yul also expressed his confidence that his father will live well beyond 100 years.

“You will definitely live beyond 100 years,” he wrote.

In the post, Yul strongly rejected the false reports and advised the public to ignore any claims suggesting his father’s death.

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

This is not the first time Pete Edochie has been the target of unfounded death rumours.
