Nollywood stars engage in playful banter over their zodiac traits
Popular Nollywood actress Moyo Lawal has backed up her colleague, Yul Edochie, on his lighthearted take about people born in January.
As Yul enthusiastically counted down to his upcoming birthday on Friday night, he shared his thoughts about January-born Capricorns, playfully stating that they are known for their “coconut heads,” implying they are strong-willed and stubborn.
Surprisingly, Moyo Lawal, who also celebrates her birthday in January, jumped into the conversation, confirming his statement. She commented under his post, admitting that those born in the first month of the year tend to be independent-minded and prefer doing things their own way.
“Yes, that’s us! We don’t listen to anyone. We must live life on our own terms. Happy early birthday, Capricorn brother!” she wrote.
Her comment sparked reactions from social media users, some of whom playfully agreed while others took jabs at Yul over his personal life.
One user, Kitty Oshone, joked, “At least you admitted it yourself. Coconut head—there’s nothing else in there!”
Another, Roseline, took a dig at Yul’s controversial personal life, saying, “More years to you, so you can witness the consequences of your choices.”
Meanwhile, Mboneyoh noted an interesting observation: “You and your wife Judy are both Capricorns—a powerful match that no one can break!”
