‘He was unusual’, Pete Edochie mourns grandson

*My grandson was unusual person, very brilliant and easy-going —Pete Edochie


LAGOS—Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, yesterday, lost his first son, Kambilichukwu Edochie.

The son died two months after Edochie celebrated his 16th birthday with his wife, Mary Edochie.

Confirming the sad news to Vanguard, yesterday, Pete Edochie said his son, Yul, called him on the telephone, Wednesday, informing him that Kambilichukwu fell down while playing football with his school mates and developed a seizure.

According to him, the deceased was rushed to the Mother and Child Hospital, Lagos, where he died hours later.

The legendary actor said his family started praying for the child immediately Yul called him on the telephone about the sad incident.

Edochie said: “Kambilinachukwu is a very quiet, brilliant and talented child. He’s not somebody you can ride easily. He doesn’t get angry no matter the situation.

He may change his composure, but he was definitely a very unusual person in so many respects."


“He was so accomplished. I always tell my son that I don’t like people excelling like this in any thing they are involved in. Experience has taught me that such people don’t last long.”

Edochie said it was unfortunate that his grandson died while he had shown great promise.

Meanwhile, both Yul and his first wife, May, haven’t broken their silence since the incident.

Patience is the Key to true success
But knowledge is the door to the success

The reason why those old people say what they say is because back then it was difficult to get access to the knowledge that will take them to the next level

But today you can easily access the knowledge you need to take you to the next level without waiting till you reach 50 years


With knowledge, a kid of 18 years can make millions from the comfort of his home because he has access to the knowledge that can take him to the next level


So my brother you see that there is nothing like fast life if you know what you are doing

The greatest fulfillment of any parent is not in birthing children but raising well behaved and disciplined kids.

Rest in Peace my Kambili. I know you were a good kid and good people hardly last long in life.

Going down memory lane, I was less than 5 the first time I heard that someone had died. I just kept wondering what death meant and what the fuss was about.

Thinking about it now makes me realize that the greatest treasure in life is being a child. Children easily get over grieve, unlike adults. May God grant the parents the fortitude to bear the loss. Amen!

when the kid of 18yrs now makes the money or success managing it becomes a problem.Why do you think most yahoo boys are having issues ranging from health and all.Bro the way a 40yrs man will handle 500m can never be the same way a 20yrs man will handle it.We have a parable in my place that says if thgs are going too smooth for u then u must be very careful.

I have seen young men of 21 years turn 1 million into 8 million in 1 year

Don't categories yahoo boys with all the hardworking young men in the country

You don't need a specific age to be successful


All you need is Lord Jesus Christ, Your Skill and Your Hardwork


Bukayo Saka of arsenal is only 21 years old but he is paid £300k weekly at arsenal


And by the way when things are going smooth for you, you thank God and bless others.

Stop expecting bad things to happen to you because you are enjoying life

The Europeans, they enjoy their life and they still die at a very old age

Lol, I get it now

Poor Africans have this inferiority complex that will lead to envy when they see someone younger than them making it in life


And we have many poor Africans so the envy go choke

But you see that is why we need Lord Jesus Christ because in Him alone we find safety



Making money at a very young is a blessing especially when you are able to multiply the money by creating other stream of incomes. cool

All those saying fast lane are daft, nothing like fast lane. Success doesn't know fast lane or a lane that's a slowpoke, to succeed you just need the following

1. The right/ enabling environment
2. The right attitude towards money
3. A good perfect family background
4. Little entrepreneurial skill.

1. The right/ enabling environment

A boy in a typical Nigerian village has a lesser chances of making it compared to his counterpart in major Nigerian city, same way with a boy in New York making it compared to another boy in Lagos.

2. The right attitude towards money

If the way you're brought up, you don't appreciate the principle of savings and multiplying your money through investment rather you believe in leading an extravagant life, you will struggle with success compared to the person that invest and spends diligently.

3. A good perfect family background

Coming from a family that has connections in high places whether they're poor or rich is a big plus towards anyone being successful compared to the one that has none, poor and no connection.

4. Little entrepreneurial skill.
This one is the final, it's like the soil you sow your seed, when you have all the factors from 1-3, what ever you decides to do, all you need is show some efforts, the grass will continue to be greener for you.

In conclusion, when you have all these as a 15years old boy, there's a very high tendency that you will become a millionaire before you turn 18, so will you say such child is on a fast lane because he achieved what others that have non of his privileges normally achieve at 40 and above?

I don't understand. So for someone to last, they must not excel or have a smooth sail through life?
He's too young for this kind of philosophy na. At least, if he had achieved greater milestones and married before age 20, then I can listen but he has not even completed his secondary education. So where and how much has he excelled to make grandpa come up with this assertions? I no gree abeg.

I hope this is not a ploy to shift peoples attention from the dust many are already raising about this boys death.

Anyways, sorry about your loss, Sir Pete Edochie.

This is why I would advice polygamous men, have each of your wife and their children live in different city to avoid stories that touch the heart. This is the best way to manage polygamous family. If the second wife is not willing to live in a different city, don agree to marry her.
