NAHCON warns public against fake social media accounts

The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria, known as NAHCON, has issued a warning to the public about the presence of unauthorized social media accounts that impersonate its identity and use its name and logo without permission. In a public statement, NAHCON's Head of Information and Publications, Shafii Sani Mohammed, emphasized that the Commission does not have any control or endorsement of social media profiles outside of its recognized official channels.

The Commission strongly advises the public to obtain information solely from their official website and verified social media accounts, which can be found on Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and their YouTube channel, all using the handle @NigeriaHajjCom. NAHCON requests the public to disregard any suspicious accounts they come across and to report them promptly, while also discouraging the sharing of unverified information.

The Commission has stated that it reserves the right to take both administrative and legal measures against individuals or entities that misuse its branding.
