2026 Hajj: Public Announcement of Final Flight Schedule
The Niger State Pilgrims’ Welfare Board wants to inform the public, especially prospective pilgrims, that the last group of pilgrims will depart for Saudi Arabia for the 2026 Hajj on Sunday, May 17, 2026.
In a statement issued by Sheik Muhammad Awwal Aliyu, Executive Secretary of the Niger State Pilgrims’ Welfare Board, it was announced that the flight, which can carry 402 passengers, will transport intended pilgrims from Suleja, Gurara, Tafa, Magama, Wushishi, Munya, Edati, and Gbako.
Additional pickup points include Mashegu, Agwara, Chanchaga, Paiko, Kontagora, and Bosso Local Government Areas.
Pilgrims are advised to report to the Minna Hajj Camp on Saturday evening for medical screening and security checks before departing on Sunday.
The Board reminds all prospective pilgrims that the E-Nusuk grouping system does not allow flight changes. Therefore, any no-show will forfeit their seat for the 2026 Hajj.
For further information and updates on flight schedules, pilgrims are encouraged to contact their Area Pilgrims Welfare Officers, listen to official radio announcements, or visit our social media platforms, including Facebook (@NGSPilgrimsWelfareBoard) and TikTok (@NSPWB).
