Operatives from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) raided the headquarters of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) in Abuja on Tuesday as part of an investigation into alleged fraud and misappropriation of funds.
The raid took place at 11 a.m. and led to the detention of NAHCON’s spokesperson, Fatimah Usara, along with three other staff members whose identities remain unknown. The EFCC officials arrived with a valid arrest warrant, signaling the seriousness of the ongoing investigation.
The raid is part of a larger probe into the alleged mismanagement of a N90 billion intervention fund, which was intended to support the 2024 Hajj. Sources within the EFCC revealed to Newsmen that the situation is being treated with utmost gravity. 
This latest operation follows a previous raid by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), further intensifying the scrutiny of NAHCON’s financial activities.
EFCC spokesperson Dele Oyewale declined to comment on the specifics of the arrests but assured that more information regarding the investigation would be shared in due course.
