The Muslim Ummah of South West Nigeria, the umbrella body for all Muslim Communities/Councils and all Muslim organisations in the six states of South West Nigeria: Ekiti, Lagos, Ogun, Ondo, Osun and Oyo States, has congratulated Alhaji Alidu Shutti on his appointment as the Acting Secretary of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria.
The congratulatory message of MUSWEN to the acting Secretary of NAHCON was sent in a letter seen by The Eagle Online.
The letter, signed by the President of MUSWEN and Deputy President-General (South) of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, Alhaji Rasaki Oladejo, said: “Please bring your experience in running Hajj operations, which you have garnered and deployed over the years, to manifestly reflect in this new position of responsibility, for the benefit of the entire Muslim Ummah in Nigeria.
“We pray Allah (swt) guides you to succeed in this new task.
“The Chairman of NAHCON is highly commended for this well thought-out decision of looking inwards to identify an experienced hand, versatile in your operations. This is, as opposed to the approach of appointing someone who will still require going through training and induction into the culture and the inner workings of NAHCON. Al hamdu li Llaah, for your painstaking thoroughness, Mr. Chairman.
“May Allah (swt) continue to guide your thoughts and your ways.
“Once again, as we congratulate Alhaji Alidu Shutti, the Acting Secretary and we highly commend Prof. Abdullah Usman Saleh, Chairman/CEO, National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) for this thoughtful appointment.
