Information has reached the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) that some persons or self acclaimed agents are using the Commission’s name to make commitments to Service Providers for contracts on pilgrims’ accommodations and feeding arrangements in Saudi Arabia for the 2025 Hajj.
Some of these individuals have gone to the extent of making contacts with the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah in the name of the Commission.
The Chairman of the Commission, Prof Abdullahi Saleh Usman, wishes to inform the general public, and all stakeholders within the country and beyond, that NAHCON has NOT authorized any individual, group, or agent to enter into contracts or make any arrangements or agreements on its behalf whether in Nigeria or in Saudi Arabia for the year’s Hajj.
NAHCON strictly conducts all official transactions through its recognized and authorized personnel, following due process.

Any agreement or arrangement entered into without a formal approval by the Chairman and the direct involvement of NAHCON’s staff officially assigned to the task is unauthorized, and the Commission will not be obligated to honour such contracts.
NAHCON urges the public, Service Providers in Saudi Arabia and in Nigeria, and other stakeholders to exercise caution and ensure that all dealings with NAHCON are done through its official channels of Communication. This announcement is made to protect the Commission’s unsuspecting clientele from falling victims to fraudulent schemes. NAHCON will not take responsibility for any losses incurred by victims of such.
For any clarification or to verify the authenticity of any NAHCON-related claims, kindly contact the NAHCON office through its official channels.
