Yul Edochie Academy

In 2015, Yul Edochie opened a film academy in Lagos. He launched the academy as a result of the decline in quality and professionalism of upcoming Nigerian actors and actresses.

According to Yul, the academy was set up with the objective of training the next generation of Nollywood actors and actresses.

Yul Edochie declared his intention run for Governor of Anambra State in July 2017. His declaration was made in anticipation of a Not Too Young To Run Bill passed by the Senate of the federal government of Nigeria.

His declaration became official when he picked up the nomination form of the political party “Democratic Peoples Congress” in August 2017.

He was eventually the flag bearer and gubernatorial candidate of the party to run for governor of Anambra State.

During the election, the actor polled 145 votes in the just conducted governorship election in Anambra State.

autobiography of yul edochie

Nigerian actor Yul Edochie has publicly addressed his son, Kambilichukwu’s death nearly a month after the tragic news broke.

In a post on Facebook, Yul Edochie shared with his followers the conversation he had with his late 16-year-old son on the morning of his death.

However, Kambilichukwu passed away later that day. Yul Edochie stated that the family misses him every day since he died.

“On that Wednesday morning, you came into my room, dressed up for school. You told me your school will be having inter-house sports on Friday and I promised you I’ll be there. You were so excited. You told me you won a gold medal in swimming,” he wrote.

“I congratulated you. We joked about your height, then you left for school in your ever-cheerful manner. And you never came back home again. I can’t question God. My dear son, just 16 years with us here on earth, but you made your mark. Great Son.”

Singing his first son’s praises Yul Edochie added "calm, cute, brilliant, always cheerful, outstanding footballer, gentle and loving soul. You’re an angel. We miss you. We love you, Kambi. Daddy loves you. But God loves you more. Rest well, Son. Till we meet again. Rest in Heaven with God. My dear son, Kambi Yul-Edochie. Kambi yoooooo! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.”

This comes nearly a month after Yul Edochie lost his first son Kambilichukwu whom he had with his first wife, May.

Kambilichukwu died in March after reportedly developing a seizure and was rushed to the Mother and Child Hospital in Lagos.

Following the 16-year-old’s death, the Lagos state police command has said it will investigate the death of Kambilichukwu.

Was Judy Austin Ever Married and Who Is Her Ex-husband?

autobiography of yul edochie

Judy Austin was first married to a man named Emmanuel Obasi. Although not much has been revealed about him, Emmanuel claimed to have married the actress when she was 19 years old and he was 29, and that he was responsible for her finances during her years at the University.

Judy’s marriage to Obasi reportedly ended in March 2013. Her alleged husband claimed that she left their marriage with their kids after he refused to buy her a house in Enugu. He further disclosed that he reported the incident to the actress’s parents but they made no effort to reconcile them.

Obasi also claimed that Judy was having extramarital affairs while she was still married to him. Judy has, however, denied having an affair outside her marriage. In a Facebook Live, the 32-year-old actress said the allegations levelled against her by her ex-husband were false.

Who Is Judy Austin’s Husband Now

Judy Austin is now married to co-Nollywood star Yul Edochie who unveiled her as his second wife on 21st April 2022 after welcoming a baby boy with her. The couple got married traditionally.

Judy’s husband, Yul Chibuike Daniel Edochie, is also from Anambra state. He is the son of Nigerian actor Pete Edochie. Yul began his acting career in 2005 and his first film role was in The Exquires where he shared the screen with the likes of Justus Esiri and Enebeli Elebuwa. He , however, got his break in 2007 after featuring alongside Genevieve Nnaji and Desmond Elliot in the movie Wind Of Glory.

Yul was married to May Yul Edochie for over a decade before unveiling Judy as his second wife. He and Judy’s marriage has stored up controversies as his first wife who didn’t seem pleased with the union revealed that her husband paid Judy’s bride price on 24 April 2022 without informing her.

May further revealed that she found out about his traditional marriage to Judy the following day. Since their marriage, several controversies have trailed Yul and Judy’s union, particularly on social media.

Meanwhile, Judy has debunked rumours about her dating Yul Edochie while she was still married to her first husband. She claimed to have met him years after her first marriage ended. Despite the controversies her new marriage has raised, the 32-year-old plus-sized actress appears quite comfortable and happy with her new status.

Judy Austin’s Children

Judy currently has three children. Her first two children were the product of her marriage to her first husband Emmanuel Obasi. She welcomed her first child with her new husband, Yul, on 21 November 2021 and his name is Star Dike Munachimso Yul-Edochie.

Judy’s son with Yul arrived barely a year before they were officially married. The birth of the child raised many issues as Judy’s ex-husband claimed to be the biological father of the child. He also accused her of denying him rights over his two other children whose names are yet to be revealed.

Judy is also a step other to Yul Edochie’s four children – Kambi Edochie, Karl Edochie, Victory Zane Chukwubuike Yul-Edochie, and Dani Edochie. Yul lost his first son, Kambilichukwu Edochie in April 2023, after he developed a seizure while playing football with his schoolmates.

Kambili’s death happened amid the marital crisis between Yul and his first wife, over his marriage to Judy who, on the other hand, has been accused of having a hand in the teenager’s death. Many also blamed her for bringing problems into Yul Edochie’s family.

Yul’s brother, Leo, is blaming May for Edochie family’s rumored crisis – Insider tipster, Uju alleges (VIDEO)

In the heart-wrenching saga of love lost and loyalty betrayed, uju, with her strong defense of may, paints a picture of a woman who has been unjustly burdened with the blame for a marriage that was compromised by yul’s decisions, yet leo’s alleged actions might also be interpreted as the struggles of a man trying to protect his brother and the family name. uju and leo represent two sides of a painful truth—each grappling with the consequences of yul’s choices, fighting for what they believe is right.

Samuel David

  • Uju, a fiery spokesperson of Judy Austin’s ex-husband, Obasi, has unleashed her wrath on Yul Edochie’s elder brother, Leo, in a blistering outburst.
  • In her scathing tirade, she didn’t hold back, ripped into Leo for allegedly shifting the blame onto May for the Edochie family’s purported turmoil.
  • She went further, accusing Leo of masterminding Yul’s decision to take a second wife, Judy Austin, pointed the finger at him as the sinister force pulling the strings behind the controversial marriage.

Media personality Uju Official, who’s gained quite the following on social media, recently dropped a bombshell about Nollywood actor Yul Edochie’s elder brother, Leo.

In a fiery revelation, Uju spilled that Leo has allegedly been pointing fingers at his estranged sister-in-law, May, blaming her for not fighting tooth and nail to save her crumbling marriage.

According to Uju, Leo is now targeting May as the root of all the insults, backlash, and chaos that have engulfed the Edochie family, all because she had the audacity to stand her ground and refuse to take Yul back after his betrayal.

Uju, who recently interviewed Mr. Obasi, Judy Austin’s ex-husband on his child separation grievances , took to her official Facebook page, not just with words, but with a video seething with anger and disgust as she tore into Leo for allegedly siding with his brother Yul, and worse, for being the purported shadowy figure behind Yul’s scandalous marriage to Judy Austin.

She didn’t mince words, accused Leo of even standing in for their father, Pete Edochie, and marching alongside Yul to pay Judy’s bride price, a move that Uju sees as the ultimate betrayal.

Uju didn’t stop there; she made it clear that Leo has no moral right to point any fingers, especially since he kept his mouth shut when Yul’s affair with Judy began spiraling out of control.

She slammed him for failing to talk sense into Yul when the whole mess started, instead choosing to stand by and watch as the drama unfolded.

In her passionate tirade, Uju also shed light on why May has finally thrown in the towel when it comes to fighting for her marriage. She spoke of the relentless pain and suffering May has endured over the years, and how Yul’s actions have only compounded her losses, and making it crystal clear to her that May deserves far better.

Uju argued that it’s time for May to walk away from a man who, in her words, is simply not worth the fight. She challenged Leo to stop the blame game and instead push Yul to sign the divorce papers, freeing May to finally reclaim her life and peace of mind.

‘happiness more important than being together’ – yul edochie reacts to p-square fight.

autobiography of yul edochie

Controversial actor, Yul Edochie has told netizens’ to allow the famous Nigerian music duo, P-Square, to stay apart if they wish.

Yul said this while reacting to the ongoing feud between the twin pop stars.

DAILY POST reports that Rudeboy recently announced that P-Square has broken up again for the second time barely three years after they reunited.

P-Square consisting of Rudeboy and his twin brother, Mr P, first split in 2016 but reunited in 2021.

Following the development, Nigerians, including Peter Obi, have been calling for their reconciliation.

Speaking in an Instagram post on Thursday, Yul emphasized that having peace of mind sometimes comes from staying apart rather than reconciling.

Captioning the post, he wrote “Being alive and happy is more important than being together.

“I see people say, ‘Rudeboy, go and make peace with your brother’, ‘Mr P, go and make peace with your brother’, I just laugh. Many people still do not understand that sometimes the real peace comes from staying apart.

“Sometimes even some family members have to be blocked and just have to relate with some people from a distance to have peace. Trying to be close will kill you. Life is short, especially for men.

“Small thing man don fall. That is why we have many widows everywhere. You have to be intentional about your life. And life na per head. Block anybody that needs to be blocked so that you can have peace. Don’t look back. Fight for yourself and stay alive. It’s good to see P-Square together. But if they have to stay apart to be happy and alive for us, let them stay apart. We love them regardless.”
