The Kaduna State Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Agency has announced the commencement of registration for the 2025 Hajj pilgrimage.
The registration process is now open across all 23 local government areas in the state.
In a radio programme monitored in Kaduna, Yunusa Mohammed Abdullahi, the agency’s public relations officer, emphasised the importance of strict adherence to registration guidelines by local government registration officers.
To this end, he said intending pilgrims are required to pay a minimum deposit of N8.4 million by December 31, 2024.
“To accommodate the unique circumstances of farmers, the agency has implemented a flexible payment plan.
“Farmers are required to pay an initial deposit of N4.5 million, with the remaining balance due after the harvest season and within the specified timeframe.
According to him, as the Hajj season approaches, the agency urges all intending pilgrims to initiate the registration process promptly and adhere to the established guidelines.
