Controversial Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has faced severe criticism on the internet after he failed to publicly celebrate his daughter Danielle‘s birthday, which fell on April 10, 2025.
While Danielle’s mother, May Edochie, celebrated the day with a heartfelt message on Instagram—along with goodwill messages from fans and industry colleagues—Yul’s silence has drawn criticism from social media users.
Yul and Danielle’s strained relationship have been a topic of discussion in recent times, fueled by the actor’s never-ending drama with his estranged wife, May.
The tension appeared to escalate when Danielle removed “Edochie” from her Instagram bio, signifying a possible emotional detachment from her father.
A quick search by Gistreel confirmed that Yul did not post or mention his daughter’s birthday on his social media pages, and this has caused an avalanche of reactions on the internet.
Opinions have been divided. While some believe Yul is entitled to his silence, others have slammed him for dereliction of parental responsibilities.
One of the users, Adenike, commented, “The moment the daughter dropped his father’s name, she was no longer his daughter.
Online in-laws cheered her when she childishly refused to answer Yul Edochie’s name, but you expect him to wish her a happy birthday?”
Another user, Zita, chimed in, “All of una dey mad. Why didn’t the small girl celebrate her dad first? Who’s supposed to respect who?
Benteke Thank God said, “When you offend your dad, you’re the one to apologize. If your dad offends you, you should still be the one to apologize. The young lady insulted her dad. Yul Edochie deserves to be apologized to.”
Meanwhile, a user named Zion warned critics, “Chai, make una leave this man alone. One day he’ll sue you all, and your eyes will clear.
