Tonto Dikeh Not An Ambassador Of Peace For NCPC – Yakubu Pam

 

 

 

 

The Executive Secretary of the Nigeria Christian Pilgrim Commission (NCPC), Rev. Yakubu Pam has cleared the air on claims made by Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh as the commission’s latest ambassador.

This comes a few hours after the actress announced herself as the newest Ambassador of the Commission on her Instagram page.

In a statement released by Rev. Yakubu Pam, it clearly states that Tonto Dikeh only paid him a courtesy visit as he distanced the body from the appointment, declaring it as unfounded and should be discarded.

The statement reads;

“I wish to state in categorical terms that King TONTO W. C. DIKEH paid an official courtesy visit to me as the Executive Secretary of the Nigeria Christian Pilgrim Commission on 25th February, 2021 at the corporate headquarters of the Commission in Abuja.

“As the founder of Tonto Dikeh Foundation, she expressed her willingness and interest in partnering with the Commission in the area of peace building.

“She equally cashed in on the visit to commend me the NCPC boss for my positive and relentless peace initiatives across the country.

“However, I am suddenly inundated with claims from King Tonto Dikeh herself that she has been officially appointed as Ambassador of peace by this great Commission. This claim has gone viral in the media.

“The Commission frowns at this claim which is a clear misrepresentation of what transpired.

“The fact remains that the I the Executive Secretary of NCPC never appointed King Tonto Dikeh as an Ambassador of Peace for NCPC and this was not part of her visit therefore this claim by her is spurious, unfounded and should be discarded and seen by all Nigerians as a figment of her imagination.

“Nevertheless, we appreciate her desire to partner with us in our peace-building initiatives and in the area of pilgrimage sponsorship to the Holy Land.”
