President Muhammadu Buhari has terminated the appointment of the executive secretary of the Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission (NCPC), Tor Uja.
Director of information at the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Willie Bassey, announced this in a statement on Tuesday.

According to Bassey, the disengagement is in line with the provision of section 4, sub-section 3 of the Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission Act.
The statement did not say why Uja was relieved of his duties; however, he is said to have been under investigation for alleged fraud.
“Rev. Ujah has, therefore, been directed to hand over to Mrs Esther Kwaghe, Director of Administration in the Commission, who is to oversee the Office, pending the appointment of a Substantive Executive Secretary,” the statement said.

Bassey also said: “President Muhammadu Buhari has directed the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation to work out an appropriate framework for the operation of offshore account maintained by the Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission, and all other Federal Government Agencies in order to streamline their operations.”
