Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has congratulated the Nigerian Baptist Convention (NBC) on the appointment of Sepeteri, Oyo State-born Revd. Dr. Israel Ade Akanji, as the new president of the Convention.
The governor, who equally lauded the immediate past president, Revd. Dr. Supo Ayokunle, for the great progress recorded by the NBC under his leadership, charged Akanji to take the NBC to greater heights.
The Governor expressed confidence in the president-elect of the Nigerian Baptist Convention, who served as the clergy in charge of the First Baptist Church, Garki, Abuja, noting that he has no doubt that the NBC will make greater exploits under his leadership.
Makinde urged both the outgoing and the president-elect to continue to lift up Christ’s royal banner.
