Netizens Question Yul Edochie’s Sudden Shift from Pastor to Traditionalist
Nigerian actor and activist Yul Edochie has left many of his followers puzzled after a recent social media post sparked debate about his religious stance. Known for his vocal commitment to Christianity and the establishment of an online church, Yul’s new post, which appeared to endorse traditional beliefs, has led to skepticism about his ministerial calling.
In his post, Yul urged Nigerians to reconnect with their ancestral roots, criticizing the focus on learning the history of foreign religions like Christianity. He emphasized the importance of understanding one’s past to shape the future, calling it a “big shame” that many Nigerians neglect their ancestral heritage.
The post ignited a wave of reactions online, with many questioning the actor’s religious identity. Just two months ago, Yul publicly declared himself a pastor, leading some to wonder about his sudden change of direction.
Netizens quickly responded to his post, expressing their confusion. One user, graceeluv, commented, “Kai. A very confused man. You were the one who said you are now a pastor. So you always forget or you just post for comments.” Others, like ada_duru2, humorously remarked, “Pastor or babalawo Yul – Na collabo,” while meetpatnice added, “I ask again Yul Edochie, are you a native doctor or a pastor?”
Yul’s post has fueled ongoing discussions about his spiritual journey, with many of his followers left wondering whether his recent shift is genuine or simply a way to garner attention.
