The Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah is hosting an intensive training programme on the Nusuk-Masar (e-track) platform at the Elm office in Jeddah, with participants from Nusuk-Masar committee of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON).
The training is part of preparations for the 2025 Hajj.
The session will focus on equipping NAHCON staff with skills to utilize Nusuk-Masar’s advanced features, such as real-time tracking, masha’ir, visa processing, accommodation and feeding coordination.
The platform aims to streamline 2025 hajj operations, ensuring a seamless experience for pilgrims while improving efficiency and transparency for managing Nigeria’s hajj.
It may be recalled that the Nusuk-Masar (e-track) Committee was inaugurated by the NAHCON Chairman/CEO, Prof Abdullahi Saleh Usman, on 17th October 2024.
During the inauguration, Prof Saleh Usman emphasised the platform’s critical role in simplifying pilgrims’ hajj procedures.
The NAHCON boss described the committee’s work as the backbone of the 2025 hajj operation.
The committee was tasked with activating and managing the portal, training stakeholders, and ensuring compliance with Saudi Arabian requirements.
