The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria yesterday advised intending pilgrims to continue with the 2020 Hajj registration pending the Saudi Arabia Kingdom’s final position. NAHCON, in a statement by its Head of Public Affairs, Fatima Sanda Usara, said Saudi Arabian authorities had not taken a final decision on cancellation or otherwise of the 2020 Hajj exercise. “For this reason, this plan is not applied in Nigeria alone; there are other Muslim countries taking this step as well to forestall any last minute unpreparedness” it said.

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, Saudi Arabian Hajj Minister Mohammed Banten had on April 1 said the Kingdom was concerned about the safety of pilgrims, urging those getting ready for the spiritual journey to delay concluding contracts. The NAHCON noted yesterday that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia had cancelled Umrah in 2020 indefinitely, saying “Thus, no one is advised to make payment towards embarking on Umrah trip in the year 2020 to any operator”.

It urged intending pilgrims to report to NAHCON, any unlicensed tour operator encouraging them to make 2020 Hajj or Umrah payments to their agencies.

This is purely scam

Is there any non-fundable fee the intending Pilgrims must pay during registration? If yes, then I suspect the Commission may be after such fee.

Otherwise , with the current global situation one should be able to discern that there's a slim chance the Saudis will open their borders this year for Hajj.
...and even if they do, it'll be with very very strict conditions that Nigerians might not be able to meet easily.

Even without Saudis placing restrictions, Nigeria government should even on it's own halt foreign pilgrimage till next year.

So their money can enter voice mail abi

Imagine, you mean they should continue with registration of Hajj amidst covid-19 pandemic? Hmmmm, it's quite hilarious.

Instead of registering, I would rather wait till next year to perform 2021 Hajj exercise.

The probability of 2020 Hajj is so slim
