The Kano state government has vowed to vigorously prosecute those responsible for the fraudulent sales of 156 Hajj slots by former employees of the state Pilgrims Welfare Agency.<\/p>\n

The National Hajj Commission had allocated Kano 6,144 seats, but the agency’s official, Muhammad Abba Danbatta, sold additional Hajj seats to 156 intending pilgrims.<\/p>\n

Laminu Rabiu, the Agency’s Director General, made the announcement on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

According to him: \u201cKano State has been allocated 6,144. On resumption of duty after my appointment as the Director General, I found out that all the seats have been sold by the then Secretary<\/a>. I did not meet any available seats.<\/p>\n

\u201cMoreso, he had oversold the seats by about 156 seats, meaning that [those affected] will not be able to perform the Hajj even after making all payments and fulfilling the requirements.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is really very sad to collect people\u2019s money and disappoint them after they might have informed all and sundry that they were going to attend the pilgrimage.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cWe have pleaded with them to be patient and assured them that next year they will be among the first to be considered. Already 2, 558 have been successfully airlifted to the Holy Land.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are going to investigate the incident after the Hajj and ensure that whosoever is found guilty of any wrongdoings faces the wrath of the law accordingly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the agency is awaiting the allocation of aircraft to the state by the National Hajj Commission in the next few days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
