A statement issued by AHUON President, Abdul Lateef Ekundayo, on Friday in Abuja directed its members to suspend all actions with respect to the 2025 Hajj preparation until further notice.

This is due to the accusation leveled against the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) by the Association for Hajj and Umrah Operators of Nigeria (AHUON) that NAHCON is unwilling to return the money that its members had spent towards the execution of the pilgrimage in the previous years.

Ekundayo explained that the association’s National Executive Council (NEC) met with the members of its Board of Trustees and agreed that the action was necessary.

The statement reads: “It is with a deep sense of responsibility that we write to issue this directive that all actions with respect to the Hajj 2025 preparation be suspended until further notice.

“Members who have made payment for Hajj 2025 should not submit it until a counter directive is given.

“Members that have collected the form, submitted it, and made payment should send the name of their company to the zonal Vice President.

“This will ensure that all our requests before NAHCON are duly met, especially our accumulated refunds over the years.”

Ekundayo implored members of the association to stay active and continue to support its determination to explore all legal means to protect its members’ rights and set a good precedence.
