Churches That Won't Vote On Saturday 25th February. by MaobiCarl(f): 3:56pm On Feb 23, 2023
Two denominations in Nigeria with over 500,000-1Million members combined together that will not vote on Saturday.

1) Jehovah's witnesses ( according to their doctrine voting is satanic bcus they are not part of the world, so by not voting they are politically neutral )

2) SDA Seventh Day Adventist.. ( They believe in voting, they engage in politics but can't because they must keep the sabbath/Saturday day holy)

Is interesting to note that these two big denominations originate from one country (America) and has the highest number of loyal members who can never question it's believe system.

They have never voted in the history of Nigeria election. Also, Shite Muslims have never voted in history.

This is worrisome. Jehovah's witness need to rethink the doctrine of not voting during election

They are one of the problem this country is facing now... Religion has doomed a lot of souls😡😠

I was in my room when a JW member said she doesn't care about the election... That's why I always send them away when coming to preach...

Doesn't sing Anthem

Doesn't vote

Doesn't go to any church except theirs

Confuse set of people☹️

Even Jesu said give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God.

Julius Caesar was a little tiny being before Jesus,yet Jesus obeyed tradition and local laws and paid his taxes to his government.

Can any citizen actually not have a say? Even the religion they practise is based on political idealogy promoting freedom of religion.. So saying you're political neutral is just stupid hypocrisy because you can only thrive when policies favour you.
Or are they living in a different country?
