Veteran actor Kanayo O Kanayo, fondly known as KOK, has made a decisive move in the escalating tension between himself and his junior colleague, Yul Edochie.

In a gesture that speaks volumes, Kanayo unfollowed Yul on Instagram following a shocking outburst in which Yul insulted him publicly.

The unraveling drama stems from a recent podcast episode, where Kanayo hosted Yul’s brother, Linc Edochie, and candidly questioned him about Yul’s controversial marriage to Judy Austin—a topic that clearly hit a nerve.

Kanayo’s conversation with Linc touched on sensitive areas, and Yul wasted no time expressing his displeasure.

In a fiery social media post, Yul openly berated Kanayo and his own brother, Linc, going so far as to call Kanayo “stupid” in a display of apparent rage.

The fallout is even more surprising given the once-strong bond between Kanayo and Yul, marked by mutual respect and admiration.

Their recent reunion had gone viral, with fans celebrating their connection and their visible support for each other on social media.

But with a single unfollow, Kanayo has seemingly closed the door on that camaraderie.

A recent check on Kanayo’s Instagram shows Yul’s name missing from his following list—a subtle but powerful response to Yul’s unapologetically offensive remarks.
