Legendary Nollywood actor Pete Edochie has stirred curiosity and concern among fans after a viral video showed him being pushed in a wheelchair at an airport.
Shared on Sunday, February 2, by TikTok user @fearless.commando1, the clip quickly sparked discussions—not just about the veteran actor’s presence but also an amusing mix-up.
In the footage, the user, seemingly a fan, appeared to mistake Pete for his son, actor Yul Edochie, as he was wheeled through the airport.
At first, the fan seemed to believe that the iconic Pete Edochie relied on a wheelchair due to his old age, assuming he had mobility issues.
However, the real surprise came moments later when Pete effortlessly stood up and walked a short distance to his parked car, leaving both the fan and netizens stunned.

The unexpected moment quickly sparked a wave of reactions online, with fans expressing both relief and confusion.
Many attributed his use of the wheelchair to the effects of aging, especially when dealing with the exhaustion and chaos of airport travel.
