Towards that end, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON), Alhaji Zikrullah Kunle Hassan on Wednesday inaugurated a Committee to prepare the conduct of the proposed Training/Workshop.
The Committee is to be led by Deputy Director of Training & Staff Development Ibrahim Mahmud Idris.
