Controversial Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has recognized the Nigerian film industry as a factor that contributed a lot to make native doctors look evil.
In a recent post on his official Instagram account, Edochie expressed that many pastors possess the inherent calling to become traditional healers (Dibia) but are hesitant to embrace this path due to the influence of Western ideologies that portray it as malevolent.
He further emphasized the role of Nollywood in perpetuating negative stereotypes about traditional healers.
Edochie asserted that being a traditional healer is a sacred vocation ordained by God, signifying a divine selection to assist humanity.

He urged individuals with this calling to embrace their purpose, highlighting that a genuine traditional healer actively combats malevolence.
“Many pastors today actually have the calling to be Native doctors (Dibia) but they are refusing to answer the call because Oyibo people brainwashed us to believe it is evil.
“And 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 decide to be evil.
“Go and answer your call. You may never have fulfillment in your life if you don’t answer your call”.
