The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has directed the provinces of the church to launch what he called ‘Operation show your Permanent Voter’s Card’ in view of the 2023 general election in the country.
A letter from the Intercontinental Youth Pastor/PICR of the church, Belemina Obunge, dated June 17, addressed to provincial pastors, indicated that members should seize the opportunity of the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration exercise to get their Permanent Voter’s Card.
The letter read that “We refer to the above and wish to kindly inform you that we have received a directive from the Mission Authority to ensure a high level of sensitization in all our parishes on the need for all our members to get their Permanent Voter’s Card in the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration exercise.
“Based on the above, Provincial Headquarters and Mega Parishes are encouraged to use their parish as a centre for one or two days to facilitate their members’ and interested neighbours’ registration considering the closeness of the deadline of the Continuous Voter Registration exercise.
“Provinces will be required to send a summarized report of parishes’ compliance with the above directive to the office of the undersigned, stating the number of adult members versus the number of PVCs counted.
“The report is expected on or before Tuesday 27th, June 2022 for onward compilation to the Mission Authority.”
Continuous voter registration exercise is expected to end on June 30.
