Nigerians Unites To Shower Praises On Pete Edochie After A Troll Claimed He’s A ‘Bad Actor’

Nigerians on social media are currently throwing their supports behind Pete Edochie, after being trolled by a Twitter influencer identified as Sugabelly.

Sugabelly, who is known for her outrageous personal and public claim, referred to Pete Edochie as a bad actor due to the fact, he repeatedly plays similar roles in all his movies.

Pete Edochie is a really bad actor.

He's been playing the same role his entire life.

Acting isn't quoting proverbs.

But Nigerians live and die by seniority so the older he gets, the less anybody is able to point this glaring elephant in the room out.

Pete Edochie has played Roles of a King, Chief, Herbalist, Ritualist, Villain, Saviour, etc & he has played them well. He gets paid to act his best role tho & I don't know how that makes him a bad actor but the Person who said it is Sugabelly so it doesn't Count 🤷‍♂️

I saw Things fall apart as a kid.

This Pete Edochie slander wont be tolerated.

Pete Edochie is truly a bad actor actually. What we want is to see him among the Merry Men, play Sunday Dagboru, get featured in John Wick 4 and act as a grandson to Olu Jacobs in a movie. Is that too much to ask for?

I have seen Pete Edochie act the rich boss man, the ritualist rich man, the company CEO, the Igwe, the village herbalist, the fetish uncle, the cult leader, and I don't even watch a lot of movies.
