The Lagos State Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board has opened sales of application forms for next year’s Hajj and Ramadan Umrah exercises.
It has also called on intending pilgrims to register without delay and begin settling their fares according to the schedule set by Saudi authorities and the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria.
The Board’s Secretary, Abdul-Hakeem Ajomagberin, said this in a statement issued on Monday.
Ajomagberin put the price of the Hajj form at ₦20,000 and the Umrah form at ₦10,000, with both sums payable to the Board’s Accounts Department.
He said Hajj-bound pilgrims must first pay ₦7m as a deposit, submitted as a bank draft from any commercial bank and made out to the Board.
