In the video, the Bishop and other priests were seen holding their PVCs up and in Igbo language called on all to endeavor to get their PVC so as to vote come 2023 election; their message was translated thus…
“We the priests of Eha-Amufu Diocese have gotten our Permanent Voters Card in preparation for the 2023 general elections.”
“We vow this day to encourage all our members to go register and get their PVCs and participate in 2023 election to elect the President, Governor, Senators, Members of the House of Representatives and State House of Assembly.”
