Nigeria’s Vice President, Kashim Shettima, has charged the board of National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) to appeal to the Saudi authorities to rescind
its decision to provide feeding for Nigerian pilgrims at masha’ir, during the 5 days of rigorous Hajj exercise in Saudi Arabia.
He said the weather coupled with the climate change experienced globally, made it imperative for the Kingdom to allow the State Pilgrims Welfare Boards to feed its pilgrims to avert physical or health discomfort during the Hajj rites.
