The movie star made this known via his Twitter page on Tuesday, May 11, 2021.

"I'm a man sent by God to liberate his people. I will not run from my fatherland. We must get it right. My plan B is 'NO LEAVE NO TRANSFER'."

Edochie is known to be quite vocal about the political and social-economical issues of the country.

Interestingly, he recently announced that he will be running for the office of the president of Nigeria.
