National Hajj Commission of Nigeria, NAHCON is set to roll out a new digital web site version that will allow intending pilgrims to open and manage their Hajj Savings Scheme, HSS accounts directly from their smartphones, tablets and computers.<\/p>\n
In a statement issued on Wednesday by Kabir Aminu Muhammad from NAHCON, the move is aimed at simplifying access to the scheme and expanding its reach across the country.<\/p>\n
This resolution was reached on Tuesday at a meeting by officials of the HSS and a delegation from the Alternative Bank where they discussed development of the platform.<\/p>\n
The session, which took place in the NAHCON’s conference hall, was led by Head of the HSS, Barrister Abdulmumin Aliyu and Rabiat Akinwale, an Information Technology, IT expert representing the Alternative Bank, alongside senior staff of both organizations.<\/p>\n
Both parties agreed to fast track the project, ensuring that the application becomes operational as soon as possible, enabling pilgrims to save more conveniently for Hajj.<\/p>\n
In his opening remarks, Aliyu described the initiative as a major step forward in modernizing the Hajj planning process, making it easier for prospective pilgrims to save toward their spiritual journey.<\/p>\n
“The web site will give intending pilgrims full control over their savings accounts whether on their smartphones or other devices and also integrate services at the Alternative Bank\u2019s branches nationwide,” he explained.<\/p>\n
The HSS leader added that the platform would provide real time information, eliminate paperwork and reduce delays in account management once the applicant created his\/her profile with BVN, NIN, phone number and email address.<\/p>\n
In her remarks, Alternative Bank’s Akinwale assured NAHCON of the bank\u2019s commitment to developing a secure and user friendly web site.<\/p>\n
“Our goal is to ensure that pilgrims can open and monitor their HSS accounts anytime, anywhere, while maintaining the highest security and transparency standards,” she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
