Some Netizens are dragging Nollywood actor Yul Edochie and the production management of a new movie where they poorly mimicked the Labour Party Presidential Candidate Peter Obi.
They made the reaction following the release of a promotional copy of the new movie which has gone viral on social media.
Peter Obi’s wife Margaret was also portrayed as a nagging wife who was not happy with her husband’s way of life.
Reacting to the movie, @a_little_god_ wrote: “Yea. Actually, I don’t find it funny as well. But strangely it’s not even really because of the mimicking of PO. It’s the attempt to portray the wife as someone vain and not supportive of his modest personality. That for me is disparaging. Especially because we can see that’s not true”.
@LordJustusN “This is not who Peter Obi is pls, let’s be guided. Yul Edochie is working for Soludo, and Soludo is working for Atiku Abubakar. Peter Obi is not stingy. He is only prudent”.
@Omoiyaoluko “Nice scripting but I really don’t think he should have titled it Peter Obi that’s too detailed others that did movies on BAT didn’t name it BAT even his logo was a little twisted anyways we all know that Peter Obi is currently the talk of the town we no go vex”.
@itumomartins “My thinking is, Yul should have allowed the 2023 election to end, have a deal with PO, write his biography up until this time, then adapt it into a movie. Not rushing to make a movie with half-truths and an incomplete story”.
@martinukaba “Nothing exciting about this. Obi is comfortable and impacting and touching other people’s lives is his life call! Even Wike attests to the fact that until you get close to Obi, then you will know he’s not frugal as you think”.
