The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has commended Nigerian pilgrims participating in the 2025 Hajj for exhibiting exceptional honesty and integrity through the voluntary return of lost cash and valuables to their rightful owners.
In a statement issued on Saturday in Makkah, the Head of Public Affairs of the Commission, Malam Muhammad Musa, highlighted the numerous acts of uprightness by pilgrims, who have consistently returned misplaced funds, belonging to both Nigerians and foreigners.
These acts of integrity attest to the moral character of our pilgrims, who continue to distinguish themselves positively on the global stage, Musa said.
