Kaduna State intending pilgrims for the 2025 Hajj are to pay N8, 457,685.59 as announced by the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria, NAHCON today.
A statement signed by the agency’s Public Relations Officer, Yunusa Muhammad Abdullahi, explained that the intending pilgrims are expected to complete payment of the hajj fare by 31 January 2025 in order to remit all deposits to NAHCON on time.
The statement urged all intending pilgrims who had earlier made deposits with the Agency to complete payment and warned that defaulters risk forfeiting their chances to embark on the journey to the Holy Land because NAHCON has also fixed a deadline for remitting the hajj fares.
The registration process is ongoing at the Agency’s headquarters and in all 23 Local Government Areas across the state.
“All intending pilgrims are expected to obtain a customised bank teller at their respective local government registration centres before making the payment,’’ said the statement.
The statement assured the intending pilgrims of the Agency’s commitment towards providing good services in order to attain an acceptable hajj by all the pilgrims from the state.
The Executive Chairman of the Agency, Malam Salihu Abubakar commended the state government for its support toward ensuring the success of this year’s Hajj operation.
The NAHCON has allocated 6,679 Hajj seats to Kaduna State for the 2025 pilgrimage.
