Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie has shared his thought on the ongoing feud between two Afrobeats heavyweights, Wizkid and Davido.
Following Wizkid’s social media outburst directed at Davido and Don Jazzy of Mavin Records, Edochie took to Instagram to share his insights into the situation.
In a video, the outspoken actor delved into the root of Wizkid’s apparent turmoil, shedding light on the profound impact of the loss of his mother.
Edochie claimed that Wizkid is battling with the immense pain of losing his mother, a grief that can deeply unsettle one’s sense of purpose and lead to emotional outbursts.
He lamented the harsh reality of a world that often worsen pain rather than offering solace, emphasizing the importance of having a supportive loved one to navigate such trials.
Directly addressing Wizkid, the actor urged the musician to take solace in the knowledge that his mother would want to see him thriving and pursuing his passion.
Yul Edochie wrote, “Many people would not understand what is happening to Wizkid but I will tell you, it’s the pain of losing his mother, Wizkid is going through the pain of losing his mother, it’s a terrible pain.
“You see that pain of losing a loved one is a terrible one I tell you, it’s a pain that will make you question God and question life, It’s a pain that will make you throw caution to the wind and sometimes even want to take your life.
“A pain that will make you keep asking yourself what’s the point of all the hustle and the achievement, sometimes even make you disrespectful and say a lot of things, a pain that will make you question your existence and make you wonder what are we doing here?
“What’s the point of all the hustle when someone can just drop dead at any time, believe me it’s a terrible pain, that’s what is happening to Wizkid and unfortunately we live in a world that will rather give you more pain than love.
“It only gets better if you have a loved one, someone who understands the pain you’re going through and will be there to help you ease the pain, be there to help you know when you’re crossing the line and tell you ‘don’t post this, don’t say this’, someone that helps you calm your nerves and the pain. It’s more difficult when you don’t have that loved one.”
Edochie extended his admiration for both Wizkid and Davido, urging them to exercise restraint and mutual respect.
He implored Wizkid to take heed of his message and embrace the love and support of his fans, reassuring him that his mother’s spirit would wish for his continued success and fulfillment.
“Big Wiz, you have fans who love you, take it easy bro, I know that pain. Your mother is in a better place, take it from me, God knows best and we can’t question Him, everybody go go there o, I know your mum will want you to keep going and doing your thing.
Truth is you’re one of the greatest artistes on the continent of Africa, I’m a big fan of you Wizkid, I’m also a big fan of Davido, you guys have done great, just take it easy,” Edochie added.
