The Kano state government denied the allegations
in Kano, Abdulmajid Mustapha, has accused the Kano State Pilgrim Board of barring him from getting a visa to travel for the 2023 Hajj exercise in Saudi Arabia.
He claimed that the state government deliberately targeted him because he was a member of the opposition.“Today, the Kano Pilgrim Welfare Board denied me my passport claiming that my Visa is not ready. I met the head of the board, and he claimed that it was the fault of the former administration. “They told me I cannot travel because my Visa is not ready. This is even when they told me that my Visa is ready and they provided my uniform, ID card and bag, but at the last minute, they told me that I can’t travel.
“All officials, including the medical team earlier booked for the Hajj exercise, were removed because they are not members of the Kwankwasiyya, about 150 officials were removed; this is nothing but a vengeance, Mr Mustapha claimed.Nigerian State winning war against COVID-19 but losing children to Meningitis
