We Are Ready For 2025 Hajj Operations – NAHCON

The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has announced that it has finalised all preparations for the 2025 Hajj operations and is set to ensure a smooth and successful pilgrimage.

The commission‘s chairman, Professor Abdullahi Seleh Usman, announced this after signing an amended contract with Mashariq Al Dhahabia. This Saudi-based company will provide services for Nigerian pilgrims during the 2025 Hajj.

The ceremony for signing the amended contract took place over the weekend, following a visit to the NAHCON headquarters at the Hajj House in Abuja by a delegation from the Saudi-based service provider, led by its chairman, Muhammad Hassan.

Professor Usman assured prospective Nigerian pilgrims that the commission is fully prepared to conduct a seamless and successful Hajj operation, dismissing any claims regarding contract cancellation.

I would like to take this opportunity to assure all intending Nigerian pilgrims for this year‘s Hajj that the commission has concluded all arrangements for a smooth and successful operation by the grace of Allah. Any contrary information is unknown to the commission, and we have not cancelled any contracts with any company,“ he stated.

Regarding signing the amended contract with the Saudi firm, the NAHCON chairman explained that the adjustment was necessary to clarify ambiguities in the original agreement and facilitate efficient Hajj operations.
He said the commission and the service provider firm aim to deliver excellent services to Nigerian pilgrims.

Today, we welcomed the head of the delegation from Mashariq Al Dhahabia, one of our service providers, to sign a contract to serve our Nigerian pilgrims during the upcoming Hajj in 2025.

They are here in Nigeria to formalise amendments outlined in the original contract, allowing us to address necessary changes to the previous agreement. The commission and the company have a shared goal: to provide exceptional service to our Nigerian pilgrims,“ Professor Usman added.

Muhammad Hassan, chairman of Mashariq Al Dhahabia, expressed gratitude to NAHCON and pledged to deliver top-notch services to Nigerian pilgrims.

We pray that Allah grants us the wisdom to make this agreement blessed. We thank the commission, and, Insha-Allah, you will witness the quality of our services. We are committed to ensuring Nigerian pilgrims receive the best possible care,“ Hassan stated.
