Why do you have to mention me? Do I look like government? Please don't quote me unnecessarily.

Afrokan:

Are you sane? Govt should take my taxes are use to subsidies hajj for some people that chose to go to mecca?
We have students schooling abroad who dont have access to dollars but its religious nonentities without any meaningful economic reason that would access forex?

Buhari okays N160 to $1 for Christian pilgrims

http://thenationonlineng.net/buhari-okays-n160-to-1-for-christian-pilgrims/
So guys let's stop pretending

WTF are u talking about, he okays n160 for Christian when the official rate was n197 and okays 197 for Muslim when the official rate is 320, what kind of comparison is that. I don't think u have ever paid tax in u life cos if u do, u won't open ur mouth to talk anyhow when ur hard earn money is been wasted.

This Muslim hajj and christian pilgrimage of what benefit is it to the country? This shldnt be any serious government problem with the current situation of the country. If u want to go for any religious trip, do that on ur own,the government shld not be involve in things like this. Talking about misplaced priorities. SMH for Nigeria as a country

Many of them saw it and told us about it but you people choose to call them enemies of state or enemies of one ethnicity or religion. But fortunately for some of us we choose the right path but you called us wailers, IPOD, 5%,but God will still turn around things for us just like he did in the days of Abacha.

My take on this is that the government should stop sponsoring and or subsidising all religious pilgrimages. We stopped fuel subsidy, increased taxes here and there because we want to put the economy back on course. Now this. It doesn't make economic sense because they are not going on these pilgrimages on our behalf.

Re: CBN To Sell Dollars To Pilgrims For 197 by Emyogalanya: 7:56am On Aug 05, 2016

My point exactly pilgrimage is one of the 5 Muslim pillars/article of faith it has to do with spirituality not physical welfare/welbeing if our court can't accept/entertain spiritual evidence/ witness . Eg dreams witchcraft prophecy etc. Why should the same state sponsor pilgrim going to stone the devil or to pray by Jerusalem wall. These guys do so cos it favours them my pain dearpreye is that they do it and marry 4wives with with nd oil wealth. To wat end? Just to have more population and dominate us all Remove that money and all this will stop. So sad that our pastor vp said restructuring will make no difference. Not surprise cos its nd oil while they preserve dia own resources. There is illegal mining going into private pocket up north . But try touching your own crude u see them come up with illegal bunkering. What's legal about bunkering. Bunkering is bunkering united nations take note God bless nda

dearpreye:

Sadly in this matter, even the Christian pilgrimage is an equal waste of scarce resources. The government has no business sponsoring personal pilgrimages .

This policy is completely wrong. The Christians will sponsor the Muslims to pilgrimage. This is our hard earned money (taxes) we are talking about. Pilgrimage is a compulsory ritual in Islam which is not so under Christianity. Besides, how many Christians go to Jerusalem for pilgrimage as compared to Muslims?

I get your your points brother. The ND wealth is what's majorly used to sponsor all these wastes in the name of a stupid pilgrimage. It's our wealth.

As for the ND eventually getting control of its oil and destiny, it's a question of time. You know my heart on these issues.

Even Christian business men will never get this opportunity. But Muslims will get it for a vacation.

And when the white people call us monkeys we get angry. You won't subsidise dollars for people to do business, keep youths in employment and make money, but you will subsidise dollars for people making a useless trip to a terrorist Arab nation for a useless and senseless excursion that will yield no financial gain. Even if business men are willing to buy the dollars for 250 or more from CBN, they won't sell but they can do 197 for some crazy hajj excursion.

This president wants to turn Nigerians into almajiris. This is what they enjoy doing to their people in the north. Make them extremely poor and control their lives. It will never work. Bunch of useless leaders. Everything about Nigeria is upside down. And to those going to the hajj, I hope they don't get bombed or stampeded on. They keep going to hajj but their attitude will never change. Monkeys
