Saudi Arabia Retains 95,000 Quota For Nigeria Pilgrims by Mrakeli: 6:07am On Dec 14, 2018
The Saudi Arabian authorities have approved 95,000 slots for Nigerian pilgrims for the 2019 hajj.

By the renewed allocation for 2019, Nigeria maintained the quota enjoyed in 2018 exercise despite the country’s inability to cover the slot.

Besides, Federal government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Saudi government on smooth bilateral relations ahead of 2019 Hajj and Umrah exercise.


Signing the agreement on behalf of the Federal Government, Minister of State, Foreign Affairs, Khadija Bukar Abba Ibrahim in Saudi Arabia, the minister said part of the agreement reached with Saudi authorities was the approval of 95,000 pilgrims for the 2019 hajj.

In a statement issued by spokesperson of National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON), Fatima Usara, Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, also requested waiver of 2,000 Saudi Riyals imposed by Saudi authorities on pilgrims in less than five years and reduction of processes involved in issuance of visas.

Also in the agreement, the Federal Government of Nigeria demanded the country’s inclusion in the new project introduced by the Saudi government tagged: Makkah Road Project.

In the new arrangement, pilgrims are afforded the opportunity to undergo a one step shop immigration clearance at home countries airports.

When I eventually become Nigeria's president. I'll scrap this hajj and Jerusalem pilgrim trips. You can't be spending state funds for religious indulgences. This should be a personal affair. angry

Saudi Arabia should please assist us financially. They have gained a lot through us. These monies realised by them should be used to assist developing nations but the Arabs are the richest and sometimes don't even know what to to with their money that they spend it lavishly on material things. They should please have a rethink.

this is not the kinda nonsense we need na undecided is it a crime if they help Nigeria with 95,000 megawatts undecided or 95,000 bed capacity hospital? all the saudi government is concerned about is generating more revenue for themselves through religious tourism. they don't give a flying fvck about nigeria after the hajj nonsense.

Africans will leave all the holy traditional sites in their own continent to go and ass lick,practice their oppressor's traditions and myths grin same thing applies for those ones that go to Jerusalem too cheesy lol y'all just a bunch of mentally enslaved black men/women.
