By Joyce Remi-Babayeju

The Executive Secretary Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission, Rev Dr Yakubu Pam has disclosed that the Christian pilgrimage exercise mandate of the Commission is hinged on Faith.

Rev. Pam made this known at the send forth ceremony of Mr Daniel Akwaya, the retiring Head Driver , a Superintendent of Works who retired from the service of the Commission after the mandatory 60 years in service as entrenched in the Public Service Rules.

The NCPC boss said, ” we have been tested with challenges, but without faith the Commission cannot move forward, adding that the good days of NCPC is ahead .”

Rev Pam stated that he joined the Commission as the Executive Secretary in 2020 when it was at its lowest ebb, but by dint of hard work, coupled with the divine grace of God he was able to uplift the Commission to its present state.

He reiterated that the Commission must be raised to the standard above its challenges.

He appreciated the former head driver for always putting in his best in the Commission as he is always very straight forward in all his dealings.
Mr Akwaya is an example of a person with a good character who served the Commission with his heart and mind, he said

He admonished him to engage himself in productive ventures so that his post -service life will be worthwhile.

Director of Administration, Barr.Sonny Ebiyaibo said, “today we are happy that our former Head Driver started well and ended well”.
” We are here to celebrate his hardwork, his tenacity of purpose , his obedience and loyalty to the Commission.”

Also, Director of Operations, Mr Abu Okpanachi extolled the virtues of the former Head Driver of the Commission for his diligence and commitment to duty.

Okopanachi said that one thing about Mr. Akwaya is his absolute loyalty to the Commission.

The former head driver described NCPC as a learning ground for all the staff who are willing to make meaning out of life , stating that he had learnt a lot in the Commission, having served three Executive Secretaries in the course of his career.
He expressed his gratitude to God for the opportunity to serve his fatherland in that capacity.

The highlight of the send forth event was the cutting of the retirement cake by the celebrant, with the support of the Executive Secretary and the Directors.
