The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has dismissed claims that unresolved 2025 accounts are stalling preparations for next year’s pilgrimage.
NAHCON’s Deputy Director of Finance and Accounts, Alhaji Rabiu Na’Allah, confirmed that all pilgrims’ refunds from the 2025 Hajj were reconciled on 10th September, with 19 States duly settled. He noted that refunds from previous years were also cleared, except for States yet to initiate reconciliation.
With the matter resolved, NAHCON urged State Pilgrims’ Welfare Boards and Tour Operators to remit 2026 Hajj fares early, stressed that timely payment is key to securing services in Saudi Arabia and ensuring pilgrims’ comfort.
