In a press conference held in Abuja on 5th November, 2022, the new leadership described the action of its sacked former Coordinator ,” as a campaign of calumny against the personality of Rev Pam”, whom he said had done so much for humanity and does not deserve such image smearing and distractions at a time like this when he is determined and poised to reposition the Commission for greater heights.
The Press conference was hinged on a recent misleading story published in the Vanguard newspaper titled,”Same faith ticket: Anti graft body ask Rev Pam to resign as Christian Pilgrim boss”.
The statement stated in part , “We are particularly excited by the position of the larger majority of our members and leaders which after our special meeting today, Saturday, November 5, 2022 concluded that the statement credited to our Coordinators is not only lacking in evidence, but also an outlandish falsehood that cannot be substantiated and devoid of all truth”.
The new CRAAC leadership further condemned totally the ulterior motives of the former Coordinator,s reckless statement against Rev Pam. According to them,”” to us in CRAAC, there is no other meaning to the infamous statement beside it being a clear sponsored distractions against Rev Pam”.
