The Director-General of the Kano State Pilgrims Welfare Board, Alhaji Lamin Rabi’u Danbappa, has called on the Federal Government of Nigeria to explore the possibility of introducing a subsidy for the 2025 Hajj.
Alhaji Lamin Rabi’u noted that the prevailing economic challenges in the country have significantly impacted the lives of many citizens, making it difficult for intending pilgrims to afford the cost of Hajj.
“In view of the current Situation in the nation, I appeal to the Federal Government to consider granting a subsidy for the benefit of our Muslim Ummah. This will ensure that more people can fulfill their religious duty without undue financial stress,” he stated.
Furthermore, Alhaji Lamin Rabi’u advised all intending pilgrims interested in participating in the 2025 Hajj to ensure they pay their deposits via bank draft before the deadline.
