Sometimes, it feels good to celebrate people who have done so much to impact positively in our lives especially when they’re alive.
Life seems to fade once you’ve achieved most of the things you prioritized for yourself although it depends only on whether there are good things you’ll be remembered for.
On Thursday, June 25, 2020, Nigerian actor, Yul Edochie took to his Instagram page to celebrate one of the Africa’s greatest actor, Olu Jacobs.
Yul stated that it’s not Uncle Olu’s birthday but he decided to remember all the great impact he made in his life with his personality. He remembered watching several of Mr Jacobs movies when he was a promising actor to study his acting style.
He added that he missed acting with him after severally played the role of his son in couple of movies. I also prayed that good health and long life befall him.
He wrote;
“Just tell me I’ll be on set with him and I’ll be willing to do anything to make it happen, even if it means slashing my fee.
“The Legend, the great Uncle Olu Jacobs. @_olujacobs. Today is not his birthday but I choose to celebrate him for his impact in my career. In the early days of my career I spent a lot of time studying his acting style.
“It was always an honour to be on set with him. I played his son a couple of times and I learnt so much from him. So accommodating, so nice. He remains one of the greatest actors Africa has produced. I miss working with him. Thank you Uncle Olu Jacobs. Many more yrs with good health I wish you..AMEN!”
