Popular Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie has finally responded to critics of his fabricated prophecy about the AFCON 2023 final.
Yul had predicted that the Nigeria Super Eagles would defeat Ivory Coast in the final prior to Sunday’s match.
In a post on his Instagram page, he said “Today’s game will not get a penalty shootout. Nigeria will comfortably defeat the Ivory Coast.”
However, the Super Eagles lost 2-1 to Ivory Coast.
Following the loss, Nigerians took to social media to express their disappointment and label Yul’s prophecy as false.
While reacting to the backlash, Yul said “It is well. Thank you Super Eagles. Getting to the finals is as good as winning. We are proud of you all. Great performance in the tournament.
“Win or lose, good or bad, we’ve been here. I love my country Nigeria. Better days ahead. Giant of Africa.”
