The National Association of Retired Hajj Administrators of Nigeria (NARHAN) has urged current Hajj administrators to take proactive pre-Hajj preparations to ensure a seamless experience for Nigerian pilgrims in 2025.

In a statement issued to journalists yesterday in Abuja, NARHAN emphasised the need for early planning and enhanced pilgrims’ education.

The statement was jointly signed by the association’s Chairman, Alhaji Bukar Kime Dapsa, who is also the immediate past Chairman of the Yobe State Pilgrims Commission; Secretary, Bako Apapa, a former Executive Secretary of the Edo State Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board; and the Group’s Technical/Media Adviser, Ibrahim Muhammed.

NARHAN, which comprises former Executive Secretaries of State Muslim Pilgrims’ Welfare Boards and veterans of Hajj operations, advised Hajj leaders at all levels to complete key pre-Hajj activities early to prevent last-minute rushes that could lead to logistical challenges.

“The National Association of Retired Hajj Administrators wishes to advise Hajj leaders at all levels to devise a plan that will hasten the conclusion of critical pre-Hajj activities to avoid a last-minute rush, which can create unnecessary pressure and confusion.

“Early completion of these activities will also allow Hajj administrators to focus on pilgrim training, which is essential for a successful Hajj,” the statement read.

NARHAN also expressed concerns over reports from its members indicating a low level of pilgrims’ enlightenment in some states, with some yet to commence the process.

“We urge NAHCON (National Hajj Commission of Nigeria) and State Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Boards to prioritise pilgrims’ education. The entire Hajj administration process is centred on assisting intending pilgrims in fulfilling their religious obligations and attaining the highest reward—Hajj Mabrur.”

Highlighting the significant financial commitment made by pilgrims—who have paid over ₦8.4 million—NARHAN stressed the need for comprehensive education on the dos and don’ts of Hajj rituals and administrative procedures in Nigeria and Saudi Arabia.

To support this effort, the retired Hajj administrators announced plans to deploy their members, who previously led state Hajj operations, to assist in educating pilgrims.

“Our members across the states have been urged to assist their pilgrims by participating in enlightenment programs, sharing their experiences, and guiding them on potential challenges, including airlifting, movement within Masha’ir areas, and the importance of conducting themselves in an orderly manner as good ambassadors of Nigeria,” the statement added.
