FCTA recommends potential pilgrims to deposit N4.5 million for the 2024 Hajj

In order to hold off on determining the actual amount, the FCT Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board (FCT-MPWB) has advised 2024 potential pilgrims to Saudi Arabia to deposit N4.5 million with the board.

This was said in a statement made on Friday in Abuja by Mr. Ahmad Saleh, the board's assistant chief information officer.

He stated that the exercise's registration and form sales would start on September 25.

Saleh instructed the potential pilgrims to send their contribution by bank draft to the FCT Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board in Abuja.

He asked people to provide their current, legal passports from abroad as well as their National Identification Numbers when registering in any of the six Area Councils in the FCT.

"The board does not consider proxy registration and does not accept monetary deposits.

He added that it would strictly follow the first-come, first-served concept. (NAN)
