Yul said he does not believe in the notion of village people holding down a person because they do not even have that time.
May Edochie’s ex-husband said that most village people were focused on their own lives while the people accusing them were the ones holding themselves back.
Not stopping there, the Nollywood actor advised people to go to their villages and ask questions about their lives through the traditional route. He concluded by saying that the church does not have the answer to everything.
In his words on his official Instagram page:
“Nobody hold you for village. Village people don't even have your time. They're busy trying to make headway in their own lives. Na you hold yourself.
"Go home, go traditional and ask questions about your life. Know who you are, where you come from and where you should be heading to. Church doesn't solve everything.”
