Nigerian Muslim Coalition Urges Tinubu to Restore NAHCON Supervision to SGF Office, Citing Risks of Politicisation
A coalition of Nigerian Muslim stakeholders has written to President Bola Tinubu demanding the reversal of the current supervisory arrangement placing the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) under the Office of the Vice President. The group insists that the NAHCON Act of 2006 assigns coordination to the Presidency through the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), warning that the 2023 restructuring exposes Hajj operations to political influence and administrative instability. They urged Tinubu to order a formal review, restore SGF oversight, and prevent future politically-driven restructuring, stressing that consistent and professional management is vital for the safety and welfare of Nigerian pilgrims.
