2023 Hajj: NAHCON to begin screening of airlines next month, says chairman

The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCOH) has said the screening of airlines for this year’s Hajj operation will begin in the first week of March.

NAHCON Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Zikrullah Hassan said this at an interactive session with reporters yesterday in Abuja.

Hassan said the aim of the interactive session with the media was to foster a deeper understanding of the workings of the commission by the media professionals.

The chairman said the commission is working assiduously to ensure that this year’s Hajj operation was conducted smoothly to enable the Nigerian pilgrims perform an acceptable holy pilgrimage.

He said: “You are aware that 95,000 seats have been given to the NAHCON, and I must also tell you that we have gone to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for our first pre-hajj visit in order to familiarise and screen service providers.
