Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has said that he needed his university degree affixed to his form when he ran for governor.

The 37-year-old revealed this in a tweet on Wednesday in reaction to a ruling by the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC).

“When I ran for Governor I had to gather all my certificates up to my University degree and attach them to my form. Now you people are telling me I don’t even need those certificates to be President??? The highest office in the country? Chai! Nigerian judiciary diaris God oo!” he wrote.

Recently, Yul Edochie said that he used to think Nigeria’s problem was the leadership until he joined politics.

Yul contested for the governorship of Anambra in 2017 as the flag bearer of the Democratic People’s Congress (DPC).

He was once an aide to Anambra State Governor, Willie Obiano.

In 2018, the star actor announced his defection from the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) party to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

He was pictured with the PDP’s vice-presidential candidate, Peter Obi, at a rally for the South-East region held in Awka, Anambra State, earlier in the year.
