The Executive Secretary Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission, Rev. Dr. Yakubu Pam has charged youths to shun political hatred, and put aside all difference.
Rev. Pam gave the charge while receiving delegations from the Plateau State Coalition of APC Support Groups in his office at the NCPC headquarters in Abuja on 5 July 5, 2023.
He urged them to avoid every form of crisis as most of them were politically motivated, according to him “crisis of today starts from the social media, as such youths should come together and live as humans putting aside all differences”.
He added that the youths had a big role to play in ensuring that crisis were controlled since they were the tools used during such crisis, adding that they were humans first before religion and tribe.
He therefore admonished the Christian and Muslim youths in Plateau State to come together and advocate for peace in the state.
In his words, “Plateau State used to be very peaceful where many Nigerians loved to own a home because of the blessings of a natural weather and soil”.
He further charged the youths to cease the opportunity have a safe environment that will attract investors to the state so as to bring back the glory of Plateau State.
Earlier, the Chairman and leader of the delegation of the Plateau State Coalition of APC Support Groups, Alhaji. Saminu Maigoro said their purpose of visit to the Commission was to identify with the Executive Secretary, Rev.Dr. Yakubu Pam for his outstanding performance in his duty.
Maigoro said unlike some persons in power who finds it difficult to carry out efficient service delivery without controversy, the Executive Secretary has been exceptional as he has been able to pilot the affairs of the Commission successfully.
He said that the people of Plateau State were proud of him for portraying the state in good light through his diligent work.
The Chairman commended the Executive Secretary for his support to the youths in the state and further solicited for more support for the youths through skills acquisition, academics and other means possible.
Highlights of the event was the presentation of the Certificate of Credence to the Executive Secretary in appreciation for his service delivery and service to humanity.
