Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has charged Nigerians to embrace their tradition and culture to be free from slavery.
Yul had recently unveiled his Christian ministry ‘True Salvation Ministry’ an online Church, in January.
The actor made this known through his Instagram handle;
“Deities are not evil; Nigerians should desist from burning shrines and traditional deities.
“It was the white man that convinced people to believe their traditions are evil; the ploy was to make us abandon our ways and embrace theirs so as to make slavery easy.
“Nigerians need to wake up and start embracing their traditions and culture; many deities acknowledge God Almighty.
“Burning them could bring perpetual trouble. If you don’t understand something, leave it. If it is not disturbing you, don’t disturb it,” he said.
However, the actor’s position has triggered adverse reactions, with Nigerians urging him to embrace religious stability.
