Yul Edochie Criticizes Africans for Ignoring Ancestral Heritage

Actor Yul Edochie has criticized Africans who are well-versed in Biblical characters but lack knowledge about their own ancestors and lineage.

In a statement on Sunday, Edochie urged Nigerians to explore their ancestry and heritage, stressing the importance of knowing one’s roots.

He expressed disappointment in those who can recount Biblical histories but remain unaware of their own cultural background.

Edochie wrote, “If you’re an African, and you know all about Peter, Paul, Joseph in the Bible and the people of Israel, and yet you know nothing about your village, your ancestors, your lineage, the exploits of your great grandfathers and grandmothers, you should be ashamed of yourself. You’re lost”.
