In collaboration with the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON), LOTUS Bank delivered the gift items after initially supporting the National Hajj Conference, a two-day intensive workshop held in Abuja FCT, aimed at enhancing the pilgrimage experience for Nigerian Muslims, a statement by the Bank has said.
