Abuja: The Apostolic Lead of Revival House of Glory International Church (RHOGIC), Goodheart-Obi Ekwueme, has called on the Federal Government to ensure fairness and neutrality among all stakeholders as preparations begin for the 2027 General Elections.
According to News Agency of Nigeria, Ekwueme made the call at the 2026 ‘Revival Is Here Again International Conference’ (RIHA-IC 2026), organised by the church. Speaking at the conference with the theme: ‘Jesus Christ My Obsession,’ the cleric stressed the need to strengthen Nigeria’s judicial and legislative frameworks to guarantee credible, free, and fair elections.
Ekwueme stated that a robust legal framework is essential for achieving credible elections. He emphasized that many Nigerians would participate in the electoral process if they were confident their votes would be counted. He highlighted the recent local government election in the FCT, pointing out that voter apathy was caused by a lack of trust in the system.
The cleric urged the government to take deliberate steps to restore public trust and ensure fairness in the electoral process. He encouraged the government to create a level playing field for all participants.
On the conference, Ekwueme described it as a divine mandate and the most significant programme of the church for the year. He noted that the gathering provides an opportunity for people to reconnect with God amidst the nation’s challenges. The theme of the conference, inspired months earlier, focuses on a renewed commitment to Jesus Christ.
