Addressing the gathering, Barrister Okpanachi announced that the 2026 national convention would hold at the Wole Soyinka Centre for Culture and the Creative Arts (formerly known as National Theatre), Lagos, described as the historic venue where the fellowship first began in Nigeria.

He also unveiled the theme of the convention as “Pressing Towards the Mark” (Philippians 3:14), noting that it reflected focus, resilience, and unwavering commitment to God’s calling.

According to him, the 2026 convention is designed to connect, inspire, and reposition members spiritually and professionally.

Planned activities include rallies, Bible teachings, prison outreaches, and exclusive dinners and luncheons for professionals, politicians, civil servants, artisans, and other stakeholders.

Responding to questions from journalists, the leadership highlighted the impact of previous conventions, noting that sustained outreach programmes and publications had increased the fellowship’s visibility nationwide.
