Justice Abubakar Abdulkadir Jega, a judge of
the Court of Appeal, is among the over 717
pilgrims killed in Thursday stampede in Mina,
Saudi Arabia.
Family sources confirmed to Daily Trust that his
body was found at the morgue in Mina.
Justice Jega was a member of the Kebbi State
Government delegation to 2015 hajj.
The deceased is a brother to immediate past
chairman of the Independent National Electoral
Commission Professor Attahiru Jega and Daily
Trust's Deputy Editor-In-Chief Malam Mahmud
Jega.
Nigerian officials joined other countries' hajj
officials in Mina morgue to identify their
nationalities.
The Nigerian hajj officials are still compiling the
list of Nigerians affected.
Other prominent Nigerians so far confirmed killed
in the stampede include the Deputy Secretary
General of the Nigeria Supreme Council for
Islamic Affairs Professor Tijjani Abubakar El-
Miskin as well as veteran journalist and
prominent civil society activist Hajiya Bilkisu.
The deadly stampede occurred while pilgrims
were on their way to perform the symbolic hajj
ritual of "stoning of the devil" at the Jamarat
Bridge outside Makkah, in Saudi Arabia. |
