‘I’ve forgiven Junior Pope for backstabbing me’ – Yul Edochie

Controversial Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has said he has forgiven his late colleague, Junior Pope for allegedly “backstabbing” him.

Sunrise reports that Yul Edochie recently accused the late actor of betraying him reportedly despite taking him as a brother and good friend and being there for him when he needed him.

He also revealed that he didn’t mourn the late actor because of the alleged betrayal.

His claims and revelations earned backlash, with many including his aunty, Rita Edochie, berating him for holding grudges against the late actor.

The actor, however, said though he has forgiven Pope Junior, but was deeply hurt by the alleged betrayal.

On his Instagram account, Edochie wrote, “Speaking about forgiveness. I forgive him completely. It hurts deeply when a friend you love, took like a brother, stood for and shown love over the years turns around to stab you in the back repeatedly without remorse.

“Sadly, that’s the world we live. Humans are filled with flaws. To err is human, to forgive is divine. I forgive him & wish his family the very best.”
