Nollywood actor, pastor, and former presidential candidate Yul Edochie has praised his fans after his latest post hit 1.5 million views on Facebook.
Kemi Filani reported a day back that Yul posted a video of himself and Judy Austin gyrating on Instagram, and he added in his caption that she knows how to charge him up. In the video, Judy was heard chanting in Igbo language, while Yul danced fiercely, and at some point, he started making animal noises.
The video, in just 24 hours, hit 1.5 million views on his Facebook page, 84 thousand likes, 28 thousand comments, and 1500 shares, which has left the actor excited. Praising them in an Instagram post, he noted how his fans are the best as he prayed for them to prosper.

This isn’t the first time, Yul is tooting his horns over his achievement. In July, Yul credited himself as the originator of ‘Nwunye Odogwu”, as he noted how, in 2022, he launched the name by using it to praise his second wife, Judy. Now, the name has become popular, and many have adopted it.
Early this year, Yul had claimed to be the originator of the popular slang for the year, “No gree for anybody”. Explaining how he revealed that people had been telling him that he was the one who started the slogan, and when he investigated the matter, he believed them, hence why he was demanding credit.
Despite the backlash he received for marrying a second wife, the actor is still standing strong against his haters. In January, Edochie shared a message on the importance of blocking anyone who affects one’s mental health, as he revealed that he enjoys blocking people.
In a previous post, he shared a word of wisdom on how to deal with trolling on social media. He admonished people to stop allowing hate comments to get to them.
