Three Nigerians in Saudi Arabia for the 2016 Hajj exercise have been confirmed dead
– Two of the pilgrims die in Madinah and one in Makkah
– One of the affected pilgrims died in his sleep

Three Nigerians out of the 76,000 pilgrims from Nigeria in Saudi Arabia for the 2016 Hajj exercise have been confirmed dead by the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON), Nigerian Tribune reports. In a statement by Dr Ibrahim Kana, head of the medical team, it was disclosed that two of the pilgrims died in Madinah and one in Makkah.

Speaking at a meeting of stakeholders during a pre Arafat meeting held at Makkah, Kana said one of the affected pilgrims died in his sleep, as his team is still working to know the circumstances surrounding the deaths of the two others. Kana however disclosed that medical personnel had been distributed to all Nigerian camps to ensure prompt response to the medical needs of Nigerians. He noted that NAHCON had procured three new ambulances and sufficient drugs to take care of Nigerian pilgrims during the Arafat period, adding that pilgrims should not wander about on sunny afternoon because of heat stroke in Makkah and Madinah.

Over three million pilgrims will perform this year’s Hajj which starts with movement to Muna today, Arafat and Muzdalifa on Sunday, September 11 and throwing stones at the devil (Jamrah) on Monday, September 12.

Death everywhere in Saudi Arabia. RIP to the dead.

Yawn!

Satan stoning people to death. Hmm

If only you know the benefit one could have prayed for such deaths if they hv good intention about the pilgrimage.

Hmm must someone always die during pilgrimage?

It's quite unfortunate des tins keep happening

But y pilgrims d lik die for dat place!! Is dying in mecca an automatic ticket to heaven?

There is no year without disaster and multiple deaths

And is it because of Saudi they went to that causes there death? Tell me for every 76000 Nigeria, a person is not die in a day due to whatever circumstances. Don't be sentiment let face the reality of life. Death is inevitable no matter the cause.

Eyaa,rip to them..but what about thos 3 tif tif cocaine pilgrims that were arrested some time ago and whose names were hidden?
Ncan needs to know.

Throwing stone at devil on Monday...


I now know why Peter Tosh sang a song.. IF YOU ARE LIVING IN A GLASS HOUSE DNT THROW STONE, IF YOU DON'T WANT BLOWS BROTHER DNT THROW BLOWS.


why stone the devil that never dies? Religion is just full of drama and rituals.



I rest my case
.

Dem just die for nothing!

For nothing!
