Nollywood actor Yul Edochie celebrated his 43rd birthday on January 7, 2025, and used the opportunity to thank God for the gift of life.

He said that he was in his true element, hailed himself in Igbo, and noted that he was the king of warriors. The role interpreter decreed that 2025 shall be the best year of his life in Jesus' name.

Fans of the actor celebrated him and shared their wishes on his special day.

Recall that Yul Edochie has been in the news in recent times because of his family issues. Often, he gets criticised for showing off his second wife Judy Austin.

Meanwhile, Yul Edochie's estranged first wife, May Edochie, has moved on from her marriage to the actor. She has also expanded her social media influence and ventured into acting and singing.

Their fall-out has caused mixed reactions from their fans who have taken sides with the public figures.

Speaking about his birthday, Yul Edochie wrote on his Instagram page: "In my true element. I thank God Almighty for the gift of another year. Happy birthday to me. Isi Mmili Ji Ofor. Ezedike 1 of Nteje. Okala Mmadu Okala Mmuo. Alusi na eje uka. Ofu onye nyili ora. Agu Nteje. Odogwu Nteje. The King of Warriors.
