Kambilichukwu: What Pete Edochie Said After Loosing His Grandson In Death—Pete Edochie confirmed the tragic news yesterday, saying his son Yul had contacted him on the phone on Wednesday to let him know that Kambilichukwu had collapsed while playing football with his schoolmates and had suffered a seizure.
According to him, the deceased was rushed to the Mother and Child Hospital, Lagos, where he died hours later.
The legendary actor said his family started praying for the child immediately Yul called him on the telephone about the sad incident.
According to Vanguard, Edochie said: “Kambilinachukwu is a very quiet, brilliant and talented child. He’s not somebody you can ride easily. He doesn’t get angry no matter the situation.
He may change his composure, but he was definitely a very unusual person in so many respects.
“He was so accomplished. I always tell my son that I don’t like people excelling like this in any thing they are involved in. Experience has taught me that such people don’t last long.”
Edochie said it was unfortunate that his grandson died while he had shown great promise.
Meanwhile, both Yul and his first wife, May, haven’t broken their silence since the incident.
