This is contained in a press release signed by the Executive Secretary of the Board, Alhaji Salau Dauda, affirming that the sum is expected to be paid in not more than three instalments, pending the final announcement of the 2024 Hajj fare by the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON).
The release subsequently directed all intending pilgrims to visit the Board’s office, located at New Secretariat Complex, Block B, Governor’s Office, Oke Mosan, Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital for further enquiries.
