The executive secretary, Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission (NCPC), Rev. (Dr.) Yakubu Pam, has stressed the need to continually reposition the Commission for effective service delivery.
Rev. Pam stated this Tuesday at the Commission’s Chapel during a review strategic prayer meeting with the management and staff as well as the zonal office staff who joined virtually.
This was contained in a press statement issued by the Commission’s head of media and public relations, Celestine Toruka.
According to the NCPC boss, the Commission stood in the gap from the commencement of the 2023 general elections to the end by urging the pilgrims of the 2022 main pilgrimage exercise to Israel and Jordan to pray fervently for a hitch-free pilgrimage exercise and for peace to reign supreme in the land.
Rev. Pam, who spoke on the theme, “Breaking Limitations” took his Biblical references from the Book of Luke Chapter 5 verse 2, called on the staff not to depend on their human powers.
“You need the power of faith to break limitations; if you have great faith you can go places. We are repositioning NCPC to break the powers of limitations. It’s poised to have a new name and a new beginning. If I do not reposition this place, history will not forgive me,” he said, according to the statement.
He appreciated the staff for their commitment to duty, especially the role they played in the successful conclusion of the 2022 main pilgrimage exercise, saying “it is my duty to thank you all for your contributions in the last pilgrimage of 2022.”
He urged that staff to imbibe the spirit of brotherhood, unanimity of purpose and oneness, stressing that “you have made me proud.”
