Jalal Arabi, the newly appointed Chairman of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria, NAHCON, has promised to reposition the commission to key into the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu.
Mr Arabi made the promise while addressing the management and staff of the commission when he assumed office at the Nigerian Hajj House, on Wednesday in Abuja.
He said: “The time has come for us to turn a new page. The Renew Hope Agenda is genuine. I don’t need to labour it. It’s genuine.
“You all know and I believe all of you can attest that when President Bola Tinubu was going around with some of us it was a privilege to go round with him and with those that spoke on our behalf.
“There was a pledge and indeed a promise at that stage that things will be better and of course in nature certainly there has to be change.
“And change must address things that have gone bad but of course that you want to reposition and you move forward and I believe I need your cooperation in that regard.”
Mr Arabi, who solicited the cooperation of the staff and management of the commission, advised those who are not ready to make sacrifices towards the success of the commission to take their leave.
He added, “But a constitutional provision has come in here, there is a freedom of choice. If you feel that the style is too taught for you or you can’t handle it by all means you will be at liberty.
” We will help you to even open the door because we have our system and we can slow down on that.
