Yul Edochie, the Nollywood actor, says any person of Igbo extraction criticising their kins for supporting President Tinubu’s government is a “cowardâ€.
In a post via X, the film star said such individuals are “cowards†for criticising their “brother†for supporting Tinubu.
He argued that such individuals do not challenge supporters from other regions or hold past leaders accountable in the same way.
He described their actions as selective and accused them of lacking the courage to confront others outside their group.
“Any Igbo man who is dragging his fellow Igbo man for supporting President Tinubu is a coward. Show me a video of you dragging Yorubas who are supporting Tinubu,†he wrote.
“Show me a video of you dragging Northerners who are supporting Tinubu. Show me a video of you dragging all the past leaders who couldn’t fix Nigeria.
“Show me a video of you dragging Northern celebrities that support Tinubu. None. You don’t have liver to do it.
“But when it’s your Igbo brother you’ll rush and set ring light to drag him.. Shame on you.â€
The actor is known to be a staunch supporter of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
In 2023, Yul Edochie publicly expressed his admiration for the president, describing himself as an “Asiwaju babyâ€.
During the nationwide protests between August 1 and 10, 2024 over economic hardship and the rising cost of living, he urged Nigerians to be patient, saying the administration would address the challenges.
