The Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission (NCPC), has announced that there would be no further pilgrimages to Israel until the Israel/Iran conflict is resolved.
Executive Secretary of the commission, Stephen Adegbite, made this known via a statement yesterday by the Deputy Director and Head of Media and Public Relations, Celestine Toruka.
Adegbite dismissed reports claiming that Nigerian pilgrims were currently in Israel for pilgrimage.
“Given the ongoing tensions between Israel and Iran, which escalated on June 13, no Christian pilgrimage will occur in Israel until the crisis is resolved.
“The commission is closely monitoring the situation,” he said.
