Actor Yul Edochie has sent a word of advice to the youths to avoid competition to look successful.
According to him, many youths are swayed by the wealth people flaunt on social media, hence they go the extra mile just to imitate such acts, thereby putting themselves under serious pressure.
"Many youths are under a lot of pressure this days. Sadly it's not pressure to achieve. But pressure to look like they are achieving. And social media is largely responsible for it. Take it easy. Avoid competition. The goal is to be successful not to look successful," Yul said in a post on Twitter.

Take it easy.
Avoid competition.
