By Joyce Remi-Babayeju

The Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission, NCPC, Bishop Stephen Adegbite, has declared the Christian pilgrimage as a journey of spiritual development and rejuvenation.

He made this declaration at his first visit to the NCPC North Central zonal office in Gwagwalada, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, on Wednesday.

The Bishop stated that under his leadership, the spiritual content of Christian pilgrimage will be enhanced and rejuvenated, alongside the developmental content of pilgrimage.

The era when pilgrimage jamboree is over, he emphasized.

He commended the efforts of the zonal staff for their commitment and hard work, adding, “If we do not have you here, we cannot be everywhere.”

He promised to strengthen the zone for effective service delivery and assured them of better days ahead. He also promised to ensure that the zones would be allowed to effectively handle the activities under their zones without any interference.

Bishop Adegbite urged the staff of the North Central zonal office to continue putting in their best, stating that he would look into the issue of their office accommodation with a view to providing a better alternative.

He also enjoined them to key into the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed TInubu, stressing that the President means well for the country.

Furthermore, the Commission has also declared the year 2024 , “Our year of Renewed Hope and Satisfaction,” in line with the new Corporate Slogan of the Commission, “NCPC… Service and Satisfaction.”

Earlier, the Zonal Coordinator, North Central zonal office, Mr. Aso Simon, welcomed the Executive Secretary to the zone and said that the visit would uplift them spiritually and morally.

He urged the Executive Secretary to ensure that the zones are carried along in the scheme of things, such as screening of intending pilgrims and participation in airport supervision within the zone.

The North Central zonal office is the fourth zonal office the Executive Secretary has visited since assuming office over 100 days ago.
