In an industry where the players are known to always call out each other for dragging and shamming, popular Nollywood actor Yul Edochie seems to be showing the ladies in the industry how to be better friends.

The son of the veteran actor Pete Edochie took to Instagram on Wednesday to shower encomium on his colleague in the industry Nonso Diobi whom he said gave him shelter on his entry into Lagos in 2005 to seek a greener pasture.

Nonso clocks 43 today and there seems to be no better time than this day for Yul to shower Nonso accolades for the good deeds done to him over a decade ago.

Yul narrated how Nonso gave him accommodation, fed him and offered to assist him during that time he was still struggling to find his place in the industry.

He wrote:

“In 2005/2006 I came to Lagos to hustle for movie roles.

“I met @nonsodiobi on a set, he was already a star then. We clicked. He said to me ‘come and stay in my house, it’s closer to our location than your brother’s house, you’ll be going to work with me, from there you’ll get to meet more big wigs in the game’.

“This wonderful soul gave me a roof over my head in Lagos, he never complained over anything, fed me and was always willing to assist me in anything.

“Nonny I never forget oo. Thank you bro! I wish you a very happy birthday and may God grant you all your heart desires. Ezigbo mmadu!”
