President Bola Tinubu has given his approval for the appointment of Alhaji Jalal Ahmad Arabi as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON). Arabi is set to serve a term of four years in the first instance.

In line with this, President Tinubu has also dissolved the Board of NAHCON. The outgoing Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Commission, Alhaji Zikrullah Kunle Hassan, has been directed to proceed on a three-month pre-retirement leave, effective from October 18, 2023, as provisioned by Public Service Rule (PSR) 120243.

Alhaji Jalal Ahmad Arabi will assume office in an acting capacity on October 18, 2023, and subsequently serve in a substantive capacity for a fresh term of four years starting from January 17, 2023. President Tinubu expects the new NAHCON leadership to serve with reverence to Allah and uphold the precepts of service according to the Holy Qur’an.
