Actor turned politician, Yul Edochie says he is ready to be a man of God.

According to him, he has had this calling for a long time but he never felt the time was right for him to make that decision

In a video shared on his social media, he stated that “I have a calling to be a preacher of God, to be one of God’s minister (sic), to preach the word of God through words and actions…but I always felt maybe the time hadn’t come, the time wasn’t right but now it’s very strong and I feel the time has come.”

Yul Edochie said that he has been blessed to have a good life and a career that propelled him as one of Nigeria's and Africa’s best actors.

The actor believes he can use the fame and fortune he accumulated and “the global reach that I have to preach the word of God.”

“I think I’ve found my purpose in life and my purpose is to be a minister of God to make the world a better place to make humanity a better place to touch, you know to touch lives through actions, words to reach out to people and make people better in any way that I can,” he stated.
