Nollywood actor and self-proclaimed cleric, Yul Edochie, has suggested that many Nigerian pastors are actually called to be native doctors.
According to Edochie, these pastors abandoned their true calling because Western influences and the movie industry have labeled native doctors as “evil.”
Edochie urged some Nigerian clerics to reconsider their paths, suggesting they leave Christianity to embrace their roles as native doctors. He emphasized that being a native doctor is a divine calling that serves humanity.
On his Instagram page, Edochie wrote, “Many pastors today actually have the calling to be native doctors, but they are refusing to answer the call because Western people brainwashed us into believing it is evil. Nollywood has also contributed to making native doctors look evil.
“Being a native doctor is a divine call from God Almighty; it means you have been chosen to help humanity. A true native doctor fights evil, unless he decides to be evil. The same way a pastor can choose to be evil.
“Go and answer your call. You may never find fulfillment in your life if you don’t answer your call.”
