The Jigawa State Pilgrims Welfare Board (JPWB) says it has refunded N13.36 million to Muslim pilgrims who performed the 2016 Hajj.
The spokesperson of the board, Ibrahim Hashim, disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Dutse on Wednesday.
According to Hashim, the money was refunded to 2,374 pilgrims who performed last year’s Hajj.
Hashim stated that the refund was for services not rendered to the pilgrims while in the Holy Land.
He further noted that deposits were refunded to two of the pilgrims who were unable to make it to the Holy Land.
