The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God
(RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye at the Holy Ghost Congress, tasked all members of the church
nationwide to ensure they access the Independent National Electoral Commission
(INEC) Permanent Voters Card (PVC).
Adeboye told the huge congregation including the pastors to
ensure they redeem their PVC before the first Sunday of 2015.
He spoke at the annual event held along Kilometer
46, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, adding that it was the best opportunity to choose
the right leader. The 2014 Congress was titled "The Great Shepherd"
Adeboye, who showed the entire congregation his PVC
alongside PVC of his wife, Pastor Mrs. Folu Adeboye, emphasized significant of
collecting the PVCs to elect the right leader in the forthcoming general election.
“If you have to spend the whole day, do it. Sit down there
and make sure you collect it. Your voters’ card is your power to chose the
person who you want to rule you.
“The first one is my own and the second is for my wife. So
by first Sunday next year, you must come to church with your voters card,” the
clergy said.
Speaking on increasing number of Internal Displaced Persons
(IDPs), rendered homeless as a result of insurgent attacks, Adeboye appealed to
the church to support the victims.
He urged the congregation to offer their supports before
December 31st, 2014 and make the proceeds available to the Christian
Association of Nigeria (CAN).
Adeboye said, “There are thousands of people now displaced
from their home. They need food. Some of them have lost everything they have to
inferno. Some needs cloth among others.
“If you will love to contribute something to make life more
comfortable for these people, so that you can be more comfortable, please do so,
either tonight or before end of the year.”
“Whatever we get must be for those who have been displaced.
We will put everything together and handle it to CAN and they will immediately
pass it to the people,” he added.
The clergy read the Book of Psalm 23, Matthew 6 verse 6, during
his sermon to encourage the congregation.
