Sam Aboyeji Re-Elected As General Overseer At Foursquare

The General Overseer of Foursquare Gospel Church in Nigeria, Rev. Sam Aboyeji, has been re-elected to lead the church for another term of five years beginning from November this year.

The Chairman of the Electoral (Affirmation) Committee, who is the Northern Regional Coordinator of the church, Rev. Professor James Nda Jacob, announced the re-election of Rev. Aboyeji yesterday.

The result showed that Aboyeji polled 1,931 votes, representing 97.6 per cent of the 1,979 total votes cast by delegates at the church’s special convention held yesterday at the Foursquare Camp at Ajebo in Ogun State.

The delegates from 178 districts of the church across the country described the electoral process as transparent.

Jacob said the church’s constitution stipulates that the General Overseer must secure a simple majority of the votes cast by delegates for the renewal of his mandate at the expiration of his first tenure.

In his remarks, Aboyeji expressed appreciation to the delegates for the peaceful conduct of the affirmation election.

The general overseer called for the cooperation and participation of all church members in performing his tasks.
