Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Governor Ahmadu Fintiri of Adamawa State has questioned the way the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria, NAHCON, handles its operations as they involve state authorities.<\/p>\n

The governor said on Thursday that NAHCON, for instance, allocated airlines to state Hajj contingents during the last Hajj operations without giving the states a choice.<\/p>\n

Speaking while receiving a report of the 2024 Hajj pilgrimage in the state, Fintiri, who similarly punched holes in how NAHCON handled accommodation in the holy land, said the state governors would in the future resist such arbitrary decisions of NAHCON.<\/p>\n

The state 2024 Independent Post-Hajj report was submitted to the governor by the State Amirul Hajj team and the management of the state Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Commission in his office on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Governor Fintiri, who commended the state Hajj team for doing a good job on their part, reassured that Hajj exercises will continue to be better because the government supports the Hajj Commission.<\/p>\n

The state deputy Amirul Hajj, Prof. Abdullahi Liman Tukur, who presented the report, said it provides the government with enough perspective on the hajj exercise to strengthen the operations of the state Pilgrims Commission and hajj exercises.<\/p>\n

On his part, the Executive Secretary of the state Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Commission, Malam Abubakar Sadiq, said the 2024 Hajj exercise was a great success, adding that as a board, it keeps improving on its shortcomings from year to year.<\/p>\n
