Aside from being a family man, Yul Edochie over the years have become famous for his career both in Nollywood and politics. He also has become popular for being vocal when it comes to the social and political issues in Nigeria.

"There is nothing to be happy about, Nigeria is a mess,"- Yul Edochie laments

The actor turned politician made his frustrations known via his Twitter page on October 1, 2018, which we all know, is Independence Day.

"Can't wish anybody a Happy Independence day, there's nothing to be happy about. Nigeria is in a mess. The masses, the youths are unhappy. Poverty, hunger, joblessness, killings still prevail. Government listen to the cry of the people. Power is nothing if ur people are unhappy," he tweeted.

Yul Edochie went to advise the government and people to try something different as the way things are done at the moment isn't working.

"Never heard of a nation being great simply because citizens "proclaimed its greatness" or "spoke greatness into it". We've been doing this for 35 years, here we are. Isn't it time we tried something else?" he concluded.
