Plural or singular verbs are not important for conjunctions. They are only important for the subjects of a sentence and conjunctions are not subjects.
eg.
He walks through the park everyday.
he = singular subject, walks = verb through = conjunction.
They walk through the park every day.
they = plural subject, walk = verb, through = conjunction.
Notice the form of the verb for the singular subject - verb + s
. Also notice the conjunction remains the same for both sentences.
