Controversial Africans are fleeing their traditional faith, according to Nollywood actor Yul Edochie, because of fear of what others may think.
The filmmaker reportedly called the trend of eschewing conventional religion an abomination in a post on his Instagram page on Wednesday.
Yul declared his support and allegiance to traditional religion, citing its power, and vowed to never stray from his ancestors’ paths.
African religion, he asserted, is based on justice, openness, and truth.
The actor referred to himself as a staunch traditionalist and praised his use of traditional Igbo names.
He posted an image of himself dressed in Igbo white and stated, “Africans are fleeing from their powerful African religion, their originality, out of fear of what people will say.” Destruction!
“I shall never stop following in my ancestors’ footsteps. Its foundations are justice, openness, and truth. I am a staunch traditionalist. ALUSI NA EJE UKA ISI MMILI JI OFOR. EZEDIKE 1. Okaya MMUO, okaya MMADU. KING OF WARRIORS
Remember how Yul said in 2024 that he felt God had called him to lead an internet church?

Yul has expressed worry about a number of recent early deaths.
In an Instagram post on Thursday, Yul reportedly stated that adolescents in their twenties, thirties, and forties died as a result of people’s carelessness and decisions.
The movie star blamed the fatalities on people giving up their old customs and adopting worship from other countries.
According to him, the strong spirits that guard a large number of humans have gone angrily after being demoted.
Everyone should go back to their strong and unadulterated customs, Edochie encouraged.
