Nigerian pilgrims praise Haj services

JEDDAH: The Saudi government came in for immense praise by the Nigerian pilgrims’ office here for the best services and facilities provided to the Hajis.
“The arrangements reflect the care shown by the Saudi administration toward pilgrims, and their keenness to provide the best services and facilities to pilgrims so they can perform their Haj without any hassles,” said Abdullahi Mukhtar Muhammad, head of the Office for the Affairs of Nigerian Pilgrims.
Thanking Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Naif and Prince Khaled Al-Faisal, chairman of the Haj Committee and governor of Makkah for their best Haj efforts, Muhammad noted the hospitality of both the people as well as the government as a “welcome experience.”
Rami Bin Saleh Lubani, the chairman of the African Countries Foundation, said all the arrangements to serve the pilgrims and to continue communications between officials of the foundation and the government departments exemplify the care being provided by the government. More than 65,600 Nigerian pilgrims have performed Haj this year.
