Dear Fellow Nigerians,
Independence Day exemplifies the triumph of our collective will and unwavering determination to shape our destiny.
It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by our forefathers and the countless heroes who fought tirelessly for our freedom. On this day, we honour their memories and pay tribute to their selfless contributions.
Let us remember that the strength of our nation lies in its diversity. We are a tapestry of different ethnicities, religions, and languages, and it is this diversity that makes us unique.
Let us embrace our differences, celebrate our shared values, and work towards a future of inclusivity and harmony.
On this Independence Day, let us renew our commitment to nation-building. Each one of us has a role to play in shaping Nigeria’s destiny.
Whether through active citizenship, community engagement, or promoting positive change, our actions can make a significant impact. Together, we can build a Nigeria that thrives on unity, justice, and prosperity.
As you are aware, preparations for the 2024 Hajj have commenced in earnest with the guidance of a Calendar of events, released by the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, in which they have indicated the deadlines for the conclusion of all negotiations for services that will be rendered to pilgrims in the Kingdom. We enjoin all intending pilgrims to pay the required deposit timely.
May Allah’s protection and guidance be with our beloved Nigeria always.
Happy 63rd Independence Day Nigeria, from the Staff and Management of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria( NAHCON)
