The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has announced a minor shake-up in its workforce, following resolutions reached at the 14th sitting of its Board held between 26th and 27th August 2025.
In line with the Board’s directive, the Commission’s executive arm has effected the reposting of pool officers back to their respective Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) with immediate effect. Letters to this effect were issued to the affected officers on Thursday, 4th September 2025.
