Pete Edochie narrated a humorous action he took after deciding to stop drinking alcohol.

According to the star, he made a New Year’s resolution three years ago to abstain from alcohol.

He shared his decision with his friends, who were happy for him. However, within minutes, his friends took him out to drink alcohol to celebrate.

“About three years ago, I said in my New Year resolution that I was going to stop drinking. So my friends came, and I told them I had now resolved to stop drinking. They said that it was good. Let’s go and celebrate it. So we went back to drinking”.

TheTalk.NG also reported that Pete Edochie trended on social media X, formerly Twitter, over his rare appearance on skit maker and content creator Mr Macaroni’s skit.

Pete, who recently spoke about his son Yul Edochie’s second marriage, acted as a man who wanted to ask for Mr Macaroni’s daughter Motunde’s hand in marriage.

While Macaroni refused to give his blessings to the union, Pete went on to deliver some of his legendary proverbs, which he is known for in movies. The unexpected appearance of Pete in a skit has left people talking on social media.

“Quitting alcohol is the hardest especially when you are addicted to it. I stopped drinking since February, I’m proud of my decision, it’s not easy but it worth it. Alcohol damage brain, liver, kidney, it makes you bloated and causes a lot of damage on your body., pale skin etc, as I stopped I get finer, relaxed and happy.”

Judy Austin openly backs Yul Edochie

In a previous report by TheTalk.NG, Judy Austin publicly supported her husband, Yul Edochie, who recently slammed his brother, Linc, and actor Kanayo O. Kanayo in a post.

The Nollywood actress threw her weight behind her man with an action she took via her Instagram page.

Judy Austin’s action comes amid the uproar Yul Edochie caused online as he seemingly referred to KOK as stupid.
