The founder of Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo, has urged Christians to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) ahead of the 2027 general elections, saying believers have a responsibility to participate in deciding the country’s future.
Oyedepo made the call on Sunday while delivering a sermon titled “Breaking the Curses of Life” during a church service.
The cleric said obtaining a voter card is a civic duty that should not be ignored, stressing that every eligible citizen has the right to take part in choosing those who will govern the country.
According to him, Christians should prepare early by securing their PVCs instead of waiting until the election period begins, noting that their votes have the power to shape the nation’s future.
“We have a right to determine who rules us and this church, with the millions we are, has a say in it, so be part of it,” Oyedepo said.
He explained that political leadership plays a major role in determining the direction of a nation and urged believers not to remain passive whenever they have the opportunity to elect leaders.
Oyedepo also said that while prayer is important, it should not replace active participation in the democratic process.
He encouraged worshippers to balance their spiritual commitment with their civic responsibilities by ensuring they are ready to vote in the 2027 elections.
