A Senior Pastor with the Living Faith Church, Goshen City, Abuja, Dr. David Abioye, has advised members to cast their votes in the interest of the church and not for the interest of any party or individual.
The clergyman is regarded as the number two in hierarchy to the Founder of Winners Chapel, Dr. David Oyedepo.
Abioye, who was for a very long time in charge of the church in Kaduna, Kaduna State, spoke during one of the services at Goshen City.
He said: “A clear instruction.
“When it is time to vote, vote only in the favour of your church and not your party.
“Any believer that sells out his faith to any party is heading for hell.
“Don’t open your eyes and vote for people who will kill you.
“If you kill your conscience, you will answer before the lord.
“We may not have the best of candidates, but we have them in grades.
“You know a better candidate than an evil candidate.
“Christians were killed and no apologies by people who are in authority and you will still blindly go and vote for them.
“Churches were destroyed, nobody bothered to build them back and vote for them.
“Hear me, even if the people who are there answer the name of a Christian, and they do that, turn them off.”
