Nigerians have been encouraged to participate actively in the ongoing voters registration exercise to enable them to elect people of integrity that will show commitment to selfless service for the society. 

The president, Ogun Baptist Conference, the Reverend Wale Oyeniyi gave the charge at a press conference in Abeokuta organized to usher in the 44th edition of conference in session.

The Reverend Oyeniyi noted that the country needed inputs and contributions of fresh and dedicated individuals to move country forward, hence the need for more Nigerians to equip themselves with their Permanent Voter’s Cards ahead of the 2023 general elections in the country. 

The Ogun Baptist Conference President also urged the National Assembly to accurately reflect the yearnings of Nigerians to achieve free, fair and credible elections in their deliberations on the ongoing electoral amendments. 

He called on the National Assembly to make provisions for the acceptance of electronic transfer of elections results, which he said would promote the credibility of the polls.

The Reverend Oyeniyi said the 44th Edition of conference in session would be held at Baptist Boys High school Multipurpose Hall Saje, Abeokuta between Saturday, 7th and August Wednesday 11th August, 2021. 

He gave the theme of the conference in session as “Christians Character: Running the Race with Endurance”.
