The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has extended pilgrims’ registration for 2024 hajj to 31 January.
NAHCON spokesperson, Fatima Sanda Usara, said the decision to shift from December 31 2023 became overwhelming due to requests from various quarters, and the low number of people who made the initial deadline.

NAHCON added that the extension therefore provides a window for new registrants to do so, and by the end of January, those who need to balance up payment would be able to do so as well.
The hajj commission also reminded intending pilgrims that the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has slated 25th February as the end date for signing all contracts, signaling the end of payments into IBAN accounts.
