Nigerian actor Yul Edochie has raised eyebrows after disclosing he has a close relationship with Nigerian crossdresser Bobrisky.
Yul Edochie described the social media sensation as “my person” in a recent interview, revealing that he refers to Bobrisky as a “she” because he loves to make people happy by giving them what they want.
The actor stated: “I address her as she because that is what she wants”. The film star also said he likes to make “my people happy”.
“Bobrisky na my padi oh but I don’t know if the things that she does are real,” he said.
“But I will be honest, she is my person and we are very very close. For me, I address her as she. The reason is because I love to make people happy.
“If you come out and say your name is no longer John it’s Yul, if that’s what makes you happy, then I don’t have to tell you to do something different. What will I gain?
“I address her as she because that is what she wants. If she comes out tomorrow to say she is no longer Bobrisky and that she is not doing again, then I will address her as anything that makes her happy.”
