Former Pastor and Retired General Overseer of defunct True Salvation Ministry, Yul Edochie, Criticizes Nigerians for Lack of Knowledge about Their Ancestors
In a recent outburst, former pastor and retired General Overseer of defunct True Salvation Ministry, Yul Edochie, has openly criticized Nigerians for prioritizing biblical ancestors over their own ancestors . Edochie, who is also a renowned actor and public figure, expressed his displeasure with the trend of many Nigerians being well-versed in stories about Moses, Jacob, and other biblical characters but having little to no knowledge of their own ancestors.
The actor and former clergyman questioned the societal focus on foreign religious teachings at the expense of indigenous history and culture. According to Edochie, this lack of awareness undermines the rich heritage and identity of the people. His remarks have sparked conversations online, with many Nigerians reflecting on the balance between religious devotion and cultural pride.
Edochie, known for his outspoken nature, continues to challenge conventional norms, urging Nigerians to explore and celebrate their ancestry while maintaining their faith.
