Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by NOLONGTIN1(m): 10:51pm On Sep 19, 2013 |
The Ogun State Government has given out free mobile phones to each pilgrim from the state currently on Holy Pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia to ease communication among them. www.channelstv.com/home/2013/09/19/hajj-pilgrims-receive-free-phones-from-ogun-state/ 2 Likes |

This is soo annoying!!! Why should the government fund people going on pilgrimage?? Shouldn't that be personal?! We really have a long way to go in this country, the government priorities need to be redefined. Its not as if sponsoring pilgrimage will reduce the crime rate, corruption or child marriage in the country/state Any Christian or Muslim that wants to go on pilgrimage should do so from his/her own pocket, God will surely appreciate it more! The thing that pain me pass be say this same governor said he can only pay a small fraction of all NYSC members serving in state schools/LG because there is no money! Amosun is trying to tell us that sponsoring and buying phones for these people is more important than NYSC members who come from far and wide....... Who have to survive on 19, 800 per month Note: money spent on these pilgrims are a luxury but NYSC members need their earned allowances to survive (remember corpers worked for the money) 18 Likes |

OMG! At this age and time, you have this much hatred over something GOOGlE could have helped you on? Pilgrims PAY for their hajj and the government makes money from it. It is only right that whatever would make the pilgrims comfortable is provided by the government. This is like a good customer service. Some just like to rant when it is a matter of religion even when they have no idea of what is going on. 19 Likes |

deols: OMG! I beg to differ, maybe in Ogun state. It is common knowledge that states in the North sponsor pilgrimages for some of its citizen. http://www.unilorin.edu.ng/ejournals/index.php/ijourel/article/view/405 http://allafrica.com/stories/201208110728.html 2 Likes |

Nice one by the government..... ...But on a second thought,WERE THEY NOT WITH THEIR PHONES ALREADY? ...OR THEY DON'T HAVE PHONE AT ALL? ...And what's the essence of giving out another phone to each and every one of them if they already have phones?....... Just asking. |
Re: Ogun Gives Free Phones To Hajj Pilgrims by bloggernaija: 10:12am On Sep 20, 2013 |
If you can afford to go on hajj, you can afford to buy a phone. Worst thing I have seen ajimobi do Very stupid idea to be funding this religious nonsense while many sectors are dying for attention. |

wellmax: If you want to speak against sponsoring SOME citizens, please do so. But don't make a wash of the majority, in thousands who save up and pay for their own pilgrimage. |
