The Niger State Pilgrims’ Welfare Board wishes to inform the general public, especially prospective pilgrims, that the fourth batch of intending pilgrims will be airlifted to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for the 2026 Hajj operation on Saturday, 16th May 2026.
In a statement issued by Sheik Muhammad Awwal Aliyu, Executive Secretary of the Niger State Pilgrims Welfare Board, it was noted that the scheduled flight with 428 seats will transport pilgrims from Mokwa, Agaie, Paiko, Agwara, Gurara, Munya, Tafa, Kontagora, Mashegu, Magama, Borgu, Wushishi, Rafi, Suleja, Edati, Lavun, Katcha, Rijau, and Mariga Local Government Areas.
Pilgrims are advised to arrive at the Minna Hajj Camp on the evening of Friday to facilitate prompt medical screening and security checks, ensuring readiness for departure on Saturday.
The Board emphasizes that the E-Nusuk grouping system does not permit flight modifications. Consequently, any no-show will forfeit their seat for the 2026 Hajj.
