"If you haven't seen MY STAR, you're missing seriously. The audience say it's the movie of the year. Still streaming on Yul Edochie TV on YouTube. Link in my bio," he wrote alongside the film's official poster.
The timing of the post caught many followers off guard. Judy Austin was spotted heading to court to attend proceedings tied to a legal suit between her and Rita Edochie, a development that has kept people closely following the family tension. Rather than address the situation or show up in support, Yul used the moment to push his latest project, a move that did not go unnoticed.
