The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has assured Medical Team Applicants for this year’s Hajj that they have nothing to worry regarding the change of their application/registration numbers.
The assurance was given on Sunday in a press statement by Fatima Sanda Usara, Assistant Director, Public Affairs,NAHCON.
The statement titled “Important Notice to NAHCON Medical Team Applicants Regarding Registration Numbers” reads:
“Sequel to numerous inquiries expressing concern over change of application numbers for those that applied for 2024 Hajj medical team, the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) would like to inform all applicants that there is no cause for concern.
“An exercise to harmonize the list was carried out after the Commission discovered that there were duplication of application in multiples. A thorough verification process was conducted to expunge the duplications.
“As a result of this verification, a reallocation of application numbers ensued. It is crucial to emphasize that this reallocation does not in any way affect the original applications submitted by the applicants.
“It is essential for all applicants to note that no accreditation has taken place at this time. NAHCON strongly advises applicants to disregard any information not originating from NAHCON’s official website. Official announcements and updates regarding the NAHCON Medical Team will be exclusively communicated through the official channels. Visit http://nahcon.gov.ng/ for official information.
“NAHCON appreciates the patience and understanding of all applicants during this process.”
