Due to his recent controversies, the 42-year-old’s announcement left many social media users shocked.

On his Facebook page, he disclosed that the ministry’s name is “True Salvation Ministry’ (TSM), and he will hold meetings on his YouTube channel.

According to the actor, he had been long called to this ministry but always felt the time was not right. He added the calling has gotten more intense recently, however,

“I have realised God lifted me as an actor so I can become one of his ministers and use that fame to preach the word of God. My purpose is to become a minister of God and touch lives,” Edochie said.

The general overseer of Shekinah Arena Ministries in Port Harcourt said that he had always known that the actor had the ‘call of God’ in his life. He congratulated the actor and endorsed his ministry.

“Good to know you have answered the call, Yul Edochie; the bible is a whole story of a perfect God using imperfect people for significant assignments,” He wrote.
