“Brother Oshokoya, the Chairman, rose up and suggested the  13

choice of Brother Oduwole as General Secretary, Brother Oshobowale as  Financial Secretary and Brother Obakoya as Treasurer. Other members of  the body consented and the selected ones were asked if they accepted.  They agreed to take the posts and promised to hold the posts faithfully by  the grace of God.
