The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has issued a strong call to action, urging its members across the 19 Northern states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to take voter registration seriously.

In a statement, CAN stressed that active participation in civic duties is not just a right but a responsibility, especially for those seeking inclusive governance. The body has tasked pastors, priests and other religious leaders to mobilize their congregations toward registering and preparing to vote in future elections.

According to CAN, the church must go beyond prayers and moral teachings by ensuring its members have a voice at the ballot box. The association believes that with faith-driven mobilization, the Christian community can contribute significantly to shaping policies that promote justice, equity and unity in Nigeria.
