Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has defended the winner of the fourth season of the Big Brother Naija reality TV show, Mercy Eke, after she was branded ’local’ by a critic.
The 38-year-old spoke up in support of the reality TV star on Twitter on Friday.
’’White people messed up our brains making us see our own ways as local. C. Ronaldo speaks English with a Portuguese accent, have you called him local? Many brains need to be formatted in this country. We no be Oyibo. Mercy Eke is not local, she is simply Nigerian or Biafran.’’ he wrote.
On Sunday, Yul shared some memories on his June 2019 car crash on Instagram.
He wrote, ”Immediately the car tumbled my whole life flashed right in front of me in a fraction of a second, and I heard a voice saying ‘Yul it’s all over. If there was anything you wanted to do, sorry you can’t do it anymore’. My system shut down…”
