The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has commemded stakeholders for their contribution to ensuring a successful 2026 Hajj operations in Saudi Arabia.
Amb. Ismail Yusuf, the Chairman of NAHCON gave the commendation on Monday in Makkah during a Post-Arafat Review Meeting.
The meeting was designed by NAHCON as an evaluation process, to gather feedback from stakeholders, assess operational performance, and develop strategies for improving future operations.
Yusuf specifically commended the medical team, the Ulamas, NAHCON’s operational staff, the media and all other stakeholders for their support and commitment.
“Everybody has done very well and we use this opportunity to commend you for all the good work you have done.
“The staff of NAHCON, the staff of the States Pilgrims Council, the medical team, members of the Ulama who provided a spiritual guidance, and our royal fathers who provided a royal guidance to our children.
“We thank you all for your hard work in this very, very modest success,” he said.
Yusuf said that patience played a major role in the success recorded, urging all stakeholders to always exercise patience in their dealings with others.
“It is understandable because the range of mobilisation of 1.7 million people within a space of just 7.5 km radius, you are going to have a crisis of space, you are going to have a crisis of security, you are going to have a crisis of fear.
