The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has hailed the choice of Dhikrullah
Hassan as the new Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the National
Hajj Commission (NAHCON).
MURIC in a statement on Saturday signed by its director, Prof. Ishaq
Akintola described the new NAHCON boss as the right man for the job.
The statement reads; “Dhikrullah Hassan is the right man for the job.
There is no doubt about it. He is not a green horn in managing hajj
matters. He was the Chairman of the Osun State Muslim Pilgrims Board
for good eight years and his good performance led to his emergence as
the chairman of all state pilgrims boards. Besides, he is a lawyer, an
Islamic scholar and a numero uno administrator all rolled into one. A
Quraysh has come to Makkah.
“We have seen him in action both in Nigeria and in the holy land.
Dhikrullah Hassan knows his onions. His human relations approach is
also superb. Our observation of him in the field of operation
particularly in Saudi Arabia shows that he is diligent, transparent
and meticulous. He ensures that things work correctly by personally
verifying challenging issues night and day. We have no doubt that both
pilgrims and officials will enjoy him. He will also be a great asset
to the Federal Government and an ambassador nulli secundus for our
great country, Nigeria.
“Finally, we reiterate clearly, categorically and unequivocally that
Dhikrullah Hassan is the right man for the job. He is not ‘packaged’
for public consumption. He is as natural as they come. We therefore
urge Senate to give him a clean bill of health.”
