?The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has been plunged into mourning following the sad announcement of the passing of Alhaji Suleiman Usman, a distinguished pioneer executive and former Director in the commission.

He subsequently served as the Director of Policy, Research, Statistics, Information, and Library Services (PRSILS), where he contributed immensely to institutional development, data management, and Hajj policy formulation.

According to reports, his ?Funeral (Janazah) ?will take place Today at 4:00 p.m. at the Al-Furqan Mosque, Alu Avenue, Nasarawa GRA, Kano State

?Former colleagues, Islamic scholars, and stakeholders in the Nigerian Hajj industry have expressed profound grief over his demise, describing him as an exemplary public servant who dedicated years of dutiful service to Allah and the guests of Rahmah.

?Prayers are being offered across the community for Almighty Allah to forgive his shortcomings, reward his righteous deeds, and grant him Jannatul Firdaus. May Allah grant his family and the entire NAHCON community the strength and fortitude to bear this loss. Ameen.
