As the deadline for registration of 2024 hajj comes to an end today 31st January 2024, the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria NAHCON is set to holds a crucial meeting with the Executive Secretaries of States Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Boards and agencies.
The meeting which has been slated to hold by 10am at Hajj House today will deliberate on the way forwards especially on wether there will be further extensions or not.
A sources who spoke to HAJJ REPORTERS disclosed that NAHCON may announce the exact hajj fare for 2024 hajj after today’s meeting.
“There are so much complex issues currently. How much pilgrims will access the dollars and that will determine the cost of hajj. NAHCON doesn’t want to leave any chances by announcing the hajj fare before now because the commission is working silently to get a favorable response from the Government”
As for the deadline, you know we don’t have hajj fare yet and those who deposit like N3 million naira may need little time to balance up in the event that the hajj fare stood at N4.5 or a little bit less. The sources added.
