Apex northern socio-polirical group, the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), has condemned what it described as the “unjustified” sacking of the Executive Secretary of the Nigeria Christian Pilgrimage Commission (NCPC), Rev Yakubu Pam, by President Bola Tinubu.
Tinubu had in January, approved the sack of Pam from the Commission and appointed Dr. Stephen Adegbite, the Bishop of the Diocese of Ikeja, Methodist Church Nigeria, and Chairman of the Lagos State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), as the new Executive Secretary.
The President had also approved the appointment of nine others to be on the NCPC board with Colonel Aloche Adole as the Chairman which many saw as a controversial appointment.
