Yul Edochie Criticized for Advising Against Protests
Nigerian actor Yul Edochie has faced significant backlash on social media after advising against protests over the nation’s economic hardships. On July 19, 2024, Edochie took to Instagram to urge Nigerians to exercise patience and continue voicing their concerns without resorting to protests.
“I acknowledge the hardships. Protest is not the answer,” he wrote. “People take advantage of protests to loot, destroy properties, and harm innocent Nigerians who are already suffering. In the end, the protest’s aim will be defeated. Remember what happened during End Sars.” Edochie emphasized the need for patience and continued dialogue, expressing confidence in President Tinubu’s efforts to address the issues.
“Let’s be patient. Let’s keep speaking out and doing all we can to help out. President Tinubu listens and he’s doing all he can to make things right. Fellow Nigerians, let’s be patient,” he urged. However, his advice was met with intense criticism and disapproval from his followers on Instagram. One follower responded angrily, questioning Edochie’s credibility and motives, accusing him of self-interest. Another sarcastically suggested he pursue a career in comedy.
Nigerian singer Spyro speaks on his values, morals, and how he applies them to his work.
He shared that when shooting music videos, he does not tolerate certain things because they do not align with his beliefs.
“You can’t be in a video with me and you’re smoking. That can’t happen. You can’t be in a video with me and you’re naked. That won’t happen. I have rules and regulations for working with people.
“I can’t be on a song that is not clean, to start with. Shoday, give your life to Christ. I said, ‘Shoday, give your life to Christ.’ He said I should continue mine while he focuses on his. Even if he’s not with Christ, he’s coming to Christ. That’s why I’m in this industry. It’s a gradual process.”
Babcock University makes headlines as it speaks regarding content creator Carter Efe, who claimed that he studied at the school and graduated with a first-class degree.
When asked for proof, he shared a certificate that stated “First Class Upper.” However, the university has now spoken out, stating that the certificate is not from the school and is forged.
“Babcock University does not issue ‘Honorary Certificates’ in recognition of undergraduate academic performance. Academic excellence, including the award of First Class Honours, is formally recognized only through the University’s official degree certificate and academic transcript issued by the Office of the Registrar.”
“There is no academic classification or degree known to Babcock University as ‘First Class Upper.’ The recognized classification is First Class Honours.”
