Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has once again declared his strong support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying he believes God keeps directing him to stand with the Nigerian leader.

Speaking on the Honest Bunch podcast, Yul said he openly supports Tinubu and has no reason to hide his political loyalty.

“I stand by President Tinubu,” the actor said during the interview. “I started supporting Tinubu even before ‘City Boy’ came. So now that there’s City Boy, yes I am, and I support Tinubu. I no dey hide am.”

When asked what influenced his decision to support the president, Yul insisted his choice was spiritually driven.

“God has always shown me who to support and he keeps showing me Tinubu,” he said. “And I’m going to stand by him.”

The actor added that he listens to God before making major personal decisions, stressing that many people may not understand his choices because they do not see things from his perspective.

“Everything I do, once it comes to my personal life and decisions, I listen to God,” he stated. “Yul know wetin he see wey make am do that thing wey he do.”

Yul further revealed that even when he seeks confirmation about supporting Tinubu, he believes God keeps giving him the same direction.

“As he don show me a couple of times, I don still ask am say, ‘You say na here I go dey?’ He say, ‘Na there.’”
