Internet Users Call Out Yul Edochie for Ignoring Daughter’s Birthday

Controversial Nigerian actor Yul Edochie has come under fire on social media after failing to publicly celebrate his daughter, Daniella on her birthday.

Daniella, who turned a year older yesterday, 10th of April, received warm wishes from fans and colleagues, including her mother, May Yul-Edochie.

His silence didn’t go unnoticed by fans and followers as they took to the comment section of his recent post on Instagram to express their disappointment.

It’s worth noting that Daniella had earlier taken down her father’s name from her Instagram bio, due to his continued presence in the news for controversial reasons and his involvement in a highly publicized relationship with his colleague, Judy Austin.

However, the absence of a birthday message from her father sparked speculation and criticism from online users.

Below are some of the comments;

“You didn’t post yesterday because it was your daughter’s birthday your shame no be here at all.”

For you to ignore your daughter’s birthday, you are going through a lot, and later, you will be preaching forgiveness. May God heal you, sha.

“You couldn’t even celebrate your own daughter. Wow. Has it gotten to that? And you will celebrate other people’s birthdays? Polygamy is not good.”

“Papa wey de keep malice with Pikin. Learn from your own father, Yul, he never ignored your birthday in spite of your shenanigans. You are such a baby.”

“Did Judy confiscate your phone yesterday? I was hoping you’d redeem yourself yesterday by celebrating your daughter regardless, but that strange woman has really done a number on you. May God help you regain some sanity before it’s too late.
