Veteran Nollywood actor, Pete Edochie, clocks 70-year-old today, Tuesday, March 7. To celebrate him, his handsome actor son, Yul Edochie, took to social media to pen down a few lovely words.
He wrote:
“Happy 70th birthday to my father, Chief Pete Edochie. I thank God for your life and i pray you see many more great years. God be with you always Dad!”
