Controversial Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has stunned fans and followers with a bold revelation about his spiritual journey, declaring that his decision to become a native doctor is rooted in a divine calling.
In a post shared via Instagram, Edochie explained that his transition into traditional spirituality is not a publicity stunt but a genuine response to a higher calling. According to the actor, the move is guided by a deep desire to serve God, humanity, and to preserve African cultural heritage.
“The call to become a native doctor is a call from the Most High God,” Edochie wrote. “A call to serve God, serve humanity, and preserve the traditional ways of your people.”
He also addressed common misconceptions surrounding traditional spiritual practices, stressing that genuine native doctors are true servants of God and should never engage in evil. Drawing parallels with other religious vocations, Edochie noted that, just like pastors and priests, some individuals may stray from their path, but that should not taint the essence of the calling.
“Unfortunately, some people abuse the call by turning evil,” he said. “Same way a pastor or priest can turn evil. A true native doctor will never involve himself or herself in evil. A true native doctor is a servant of God Almighty.”
Yul Edochie, known for his outspoken nature and controversial views, continues to challenge societal norms, this time with a spiritual narrative that’s sparking debate across social media and traditional platforms alike.
As reactions pour in, many await to see how this new chapter in Edochie’s life unfolds, and what impact it may have on the broader conversation around spirituality and African tradition.
