A social justice activist and critic, Charles Ogbu, says Nollywood actor Yul Edochie deserves the award for the most insensitive person between 2023 and 2024.
Ogbu’s statement followed a post by Yul claiming that his late colleague, Junior Pope, betrayed him repeatedly despite his being there for him in his times of need.
The Nollywood star said he wanted to wait till after Junior Pope’s burial before he could divulge how the late actor betrayed him.
“I didn’t want to say anything till after his burial. I know many asked why I wasn’t there. Why I haven’t said anything about it since.
“I took him like a brother & good friend. I was there for him when he needed me. But he stabbed me in the back repeatedly. That’s life!
“I’ll drop the full details soon so others can learn from it.
“Be careful what you wish people, it could come to you,” Yul wrote on his Instagram story.
However, the statement did not get down well with Ogbu, who took to his Facebook page to describe Yul’s post as nonsense and insensitive.
He said: “Yul Edochie deserves the award for the 2023/2024 most INSENS!T!VE pers0n.
“See the n0ns€nse he’s writing about the late Junior Pope.”
LegalDeskNG recalls that Junior Pope died in April alongside three others after their boat capsized in river in Anambra State while returning from a film location.
He had since been buried last week in his hometown in Ukehe, Igbo Etiti Local Government Area of Enugu State.
