The groups states that “the new Hausa version of 'Hajj Reporters online' will concentrate on 'pilgrims education and enlightenment', the do’s and don’ts of Hajj and Umrah, local and international news on Hajj and Umrah, and also orienting the pilgrims on Hajj administrative policies as obtained in Nigeria and in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
"It is our belief that one of the major problems or barrier to pilgrims education and enlightenment is how it is communicated, and the ease with which they can translate that knowledge into practical action during Hajj operation. Therefore, IHR is determined to communicate with pilgrims using the language they are most comfortable with, which he said in the statement.
