The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) set a deadline of October 8 for States, Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Boards, Agencies, Commissions, and licensed Hajj Operators to remit the Hajj fare for the 2026 pilgrimage. This announcement followed Saudi Arabia's declaration of October 12, 2025, as the final date for pilgrim registration and data submission.

NAHCON urged stakeholders to adhere strictly to the deadline to ensure a smooth and successful Hajj experience for Nigerian pilgrims. The Commission's preparations for the 2026 Hajj include collaboration with Saudi Arabia to enhance operational efficiency.
