The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria has sets N8.7 million for Southern states, and N8.3 million for Borno and Adamawa zones as 2025 Hajj fare, for intending pilgrims. The Commission disclosed this through the Assistant Director of Information and Publication, Fatima Usara on Monday in Abuja.
NAHCON noted that intending pilgrims from the Northern zone will pay N8.4 million for the pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia.
He described the fare as the result of extensive deliberations with key stakeholders, including the presidency and state pilgrims’ boards.
“The 2025 Hajj fare for Borno and Adamawa zone’s intending pilgrims are N8.33 million. Similarly, the cost for intending pilgrims from the Southern states is N8.78 million, while pilgrims from the Northern zone will pay N8.46 million.”
This modest effort was achieved after extensive consultations to ensure inclusivity in the decision-making process.
For more details and a breakdown of the fare, NAHCON directed pilgrims to visit its official website or contact state pilgrims’ welfare boards.
