A veteran of the Nigerian film industry named Pete Edochie recently granted an interview to Vanguard News, during which he discussed his children.
The well-known actor got married to Josephine Edochie when he was only 22 years old, and the couple has been blessed with six children together; of their children, two have followed in their father’s footsteps and become actors.
The names Eva, Yul, Gene, Linc, and Uche Edochie make up Pete Edochie’s children.
During the course of the interview, Pete Edochie discussed his thoughts and feelings in relation to the scandal and specifically responded to a question regarding the reason why Yul is so dissimilar to his other children.
Pete Edochie stated his position as follows:
“He’s into show business and he tries to create controversies around himself. That’s why he has a lot of followers on social media.”
The interviewer continued: But why does it seems Yul is a child after your heart?
His response;
“All my children are after my heart. Whatever they do I am still their father, and I am very close to all of them. I don’t have a favorite one. And I didn’t raise them like that. Whatever you find in my house is accessible to all of them .
“I don’t contest their choices with them. If any one of them meets a girl and he’s in love with her and he wants to marry her, let that person go ahead and do so. I gave them the necessary education they require to stand on their own. I bought a car for each one of them when they graduated from the university.”
