Some pilgrims taking part the 2025 Hajj exercise have commended the National Hajj Commission (NAHCON), for providing quality accommodation in Medina, Saudi Arabia.
A cross section of the pilgrims stated this in separate interviews with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), on Sunday in Medina, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Alhaji Isa Riyau, a pilgrim from Niger state, said the gesture would ensure a smooth and dignified journey for Nigerian pilgrims in Saudi Arabia.
He said that provision of a decent accommodation closed to the Holy Prophet Mosque, would enable the pilgrims to observe their prayers with ease.
Riyau said that provision of decent meals for the pilgrims would also enhance their experiences, and encourage them to devote themselves to observing Hajj rituals.
“Good nutrition is essential for the pilgrims physical and spiritual wellbeing during this sacred journey,” he said.
A pilgrim from Kano State, Isa Abubakar lauded the state government for deploying effective medical team and facilities, to ensure prompt healthcare responses.
Another pilgrim from Bauchi State, Abba Muhammad underscored the importance of quality healthcare services to facilitate smooth Hajj exercise.
NAN reports that the commission has so far transported 36,359 pilgrims to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for the 2025 Hajj exercise.
