Yul Edochie wrote in part:

“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."
