Controversial Nigerian actor turned pastor, Yul Edochie, has retracted his earlier statement on the late Junior Pope and has revealed that he has forgiven him.

Recall that Yul went under fire recently for not being present at the late Junior Pope's burial. He revealed that the late actor hurt him greatly and that was why he decided not to be present at his burial.

Yul's comment got serious backlash from many Netizens including actor's and actresses, who believe that the actor should have honoured the dead.

Following the numerous criticisms, Yul Edochie has come out to reveal that he has now forgiven Junior Pope for what he did to him.

He wrote;
“Speaking about forgiveness. I forgive him completely. It hurts deeply when a friend you love, took like a brother, stood for and shown love over the years turns around to stab you in the back repeatedly without remorse

Sadly, that’s the world we live. Humans are filled with flaws. To err is human, to forgive is divine. I forgive him & wish his family the very best.”
