Yul Edochie, a prominent figure in the Nigerian film industry, has described how he was subjected to severe backlash from his followers when he celebrated the birthday of renowned crossdresser Bobrisky.
He described how he had gotten threats after wishing Bobrisky a happy birthday and posted a picture of him on his Instagram profile along with the greeting.
Edochie revealed this information in a video that he uploaded on his YouTube website and stated that some of his fans rushed to the comment section to accuse him of dating the male barbe.
According to the Nollywood actor, it is not appropriate for persons to pass judgment on others because God created all people, regardless of how differently they may be. This makes it unacceptable for individuals to pass judgment on others.
He said;
Earlier this year, I wished Bobrisky a happy birthday with his picture posted on my Instagram page. And then my page literally blew up and went on fire. By the time I came back, I got thousands of messages on ….. and then my DM was flooded with messages. Somebody actually sent me a DM and said that I’m sleeping with Bobrisky. Just because I wished him a happy birthday on my page.
Someone even called me and requested that I pull down …… Some people were even telling me how God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. Are you God? Did God send you to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah?
Stop judging people, you are not God. Bobrisky is a human being like every other person. Why do we discriminate against people? We should stop all these. God said love your neighbour as yourself. Nigerians rest.
