Overview
What I observed during the 2017 Anambra governorship race - Yul Edochie
Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has shared insights from his experience contesting in the 2017 Anambra governorship election, noting the amicable relationships among the candidates.
Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) page, Yul revealed that despite the political rivalry, the contestants, including the incumbent governor, maintained mutual respect and friendliness.
“When I ran for Governor of Anambra in 2017, I noticed something. All the governorship candidates were all friendly, including the sitting Governor. The few times we all met, there was always mutual respect in the air amidst jokes. Funny, na the supporters dey fight up & down,” he tweeted.
The post stirred reactions from followers, with many agreeing with Yul’s perspective.
One user, @hyundaisplash, commented, “Only wise people will see sense in what you just tweeted.”
Another, @dannyliv12, expressed disappointment over partisan violence, writing, “Smh for the fools who kills themselves all in the name of fighting for party.”#
Meanwhile, @real_stqinless humorously referred to overzealous fans as “Supporters way mumu.”
