“The 2025 Hajj fare for Borno and Adamawa zone’s intending pilgrims is N8.33 million. Similarly, the cost for intending pilgrims from the Southern states is N8.78 million, while pilgrims from the Northern zone will pay N8.46 million.

According to the commission, the fare was determined after comprehensive deliberations with key stakeholders, including the presidency and state pilgrims’ boards.

NAHCON advised intending pilgrims to register early, adhere to Saudi guidelines, and make timely payments to avoid inconveniences. It also directed prospective pilgrims to visit its official website or contact their state pilgrims’ welfare boards for more details and a breakdown of the fare.

Prof. Usman expressed gratitude to the presidency and other stakeholders for their cooperation, emphasizing the commission’s commitment to ensuring a seamless Hajj experience for all Nigerian pilgrims.
