Yul Edochie has taken to social media to express his gratitude to fellow actor Nonso Diob for his kind gestures towards him.

The actor and politician made this known via his Twitter page while reacting to a post celebrating Nonso as one of the top 20 actors of all time in the movie industry.
Dubbed the new Ramsey Nouah, Nonso who was listed as number 17 was praised for his good looks and acting skills.
17. Nonso Diobi – At a time, Nonso more or less became a youthful version of Ramsey Nouah, he was younger, fresher and bursting with so much energy per movie.

Reacting to the post, Yul described his fellow movie colleague as a great soul and then revealed he was one of the many newbie actors the award-winning movie star took under his wings and never complained about it.
Apart from accommodation, he noted that Nonso encouraged them a lot in their careers. Speaking further, he went on to say that he will never stop celebrating him because it is hard to find good people.
“Nonso Diobi housed many upcoming actors then in Lagos, including me. He would never complain. Always ready to assist & encourage. I’ll never stop celebrating him cos good people are hard to find. Great Soul,” he wrote.
