The Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission NCPC, Rev Uja Tor Uja has said that the Commission would continue to support the church to enable them perform Holy Pilgrimage without hitches.
The Executive Secretary who spoke through the Head of Operations, Rev Amos Yohanna disclosed this recently in Abuja while playing host to the founder, Love of Christ Cherubim and Seraphim Church, London, Rev Mother Esther Abimbola Ajayi. His words, “NCPC as a government agency is committed to continuously give the church all administrative support to perform Pilgrimage without hitches”.
The NCPC boss commended Rev Mother Esther Ajayi for her unflinching commitment to Christian Pilgrimage. He described her as one of the pillars of Christian Pilgrimage in Nigeria. He stressed that no Nigerian woman has been so committed to pilgrimage like her.
The NCPC boss stated that so far, the Esther Ajayi Foundation has single handedly sponsored about 145 pilgrims to the Holy land. He further commended her for recording zero abscondment with all her pilgrims who perform pilgrimage in Israel and returned without anyone absconding. According to him, “This achievement is instructive and should be commended”.
Earlier, the founder of Love of Christ Cherubim and Seraphim Church, London, said that she was at NCPC with her team to appreciate the Commission for the effective and excellent way Christian Pilgrimage is being conducted. She further applauded the Executive Secretary and his management team for providing her Foundation with the enabling environment to perform pilgrimage smoothly.
She intimated that the Esther Ajayi Foundation has been able to achieve so much as a result of the close relations with NCPC through its operations.
She further disclosed that her foundation has never recorded any incident of abscondment of pilgrims under her watch due to her extreme vetting which allows only the honest and committed Christians to scale through her selection process. She informed the Executive Secretary that her foundation will sponsor 100 intending pilgrims to Israel for this year’s Main Pilgrimage which will commence on 24 November, 2018. In addition, she promised to sponsor 10 staff of NCPC in appreciation for the good work and support her Foundation has received from the Commission over the years.
Rev Mother Esther Ajayi was accompanied to her visit by Rev Dr Ademuyiwa Ajayi, His Most Eminence, Prophet Dr. Solomon Adegboyega Alao ,the Supreme Head Cherubim and Seraphim Unification Church of Nigeria and a team of church leaders and members.
