The moment brought back so many beautiful memories for me.
It took me back to my days as a child when we used to go on school excursions.
It was so much fun.
EDUCATION IS BEAUTIFUL.
IF YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET IT, DONT MISS IT”.
A few weeks ago, the Eastern actor wrote a note to Africans, admonishing them to copy only a few positive aspects of Western culture. However, we shouldn’t lose our identity, tradition, and religion. Yul noted how our identity is our power, and we should be proudly and unapologetically African.
In a past message to Africans, the actor kicked against flogging children for speaking their mother tongue.

In a message to young people, he stated that no calls, phone, or material possessions are worth killing someone for, and neither is it worth committing a crime. He admonished them to stop feeling intimidated and keep doing legit business.
He had also made a clarion call to his fans and followers on social media about the need to spread love across and beyond. He voiced out that there’s so much hate and envy in the world, and there’s a need to kill it with love.
