In what many have described as an unprecedented move, the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has flagged of its political awareness campaign tagged’ Let My People Vote.’

According to Pastor Ola Adejubee, the Assistant Pastor in Charge of RCCG Region 1 who is also the coordinator of the initiative, the programme is the vision of the RCCG General Overseer, Pastor E.A Adeboye.

It all started on January 6, 2017 during the annual ministers thanksgiving. In his opening remarks, Pastor Adeboye jolted the ministers when he instructed them to go and collect their Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs).

If the above statement came as a surprise to the ministers, they became dumbfounded when in August last year, during the RCCG annual ministers conference, Pastor Adeboye asked them to go and join any political party of their choice. This time, it was with an emotion-laden voice.
