2 Oyo Pilgrims Detained By Saudi Authorities For Drug- Related Offence by Kcinho(m): 1:04pm On Oct 19, 2015
Two of the 1,191 pilgrims from Oyo State
who performed this year’s Hajj were
detained by the Saudi Arabian authorities
for a drug-related offence.


Alhaji Adeleke AbdulKareem, the Secretary,
Oyo State Pilgrims Welfare Board, disclosed
this in an interview with the News Agency
of Nigeria (NAN) in Ibadan on Monday.
Abdulkareem said the affected pilgrims
were females, adding that one of them
escaped while the other was still in
detention.
He said that the drug found with the
pilgrims was Tramador, a contraband in
Saudi Arabia, which the pilgrims had been
warned against.


The secretary also said that two other
pilgrims from the state died due to ill
health before Arafat Day.
Abdulkareem said that the last batch of
pilgrims from the state arrived Nigeria on
Oct. 11.


He warned pilgrims to always comply with
the rules and regulation of the Saudi
authorities to avoid being arrested or
tarnishing the country’s image. (NAN)

Sophisticated drug dealership led by yorobbers since 1914. Little wonder why we have tinubu and kashamu as their leaders, suwe as their super stars!. But they can't still measure up to the standard! They have to use crude and cunny method! But how can people known for snitching around and cowards? They have been disgracing the country, credit cards fraud, email scams etc come to mind

I can't trust them at all, 99% of fake pastors and imams are from that side. It is not a surprising thing if they use hajj opportunity to shift drugs to Saudi Arabia
