2027 hajj: Intending pilgrims to pay N7.88m

The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has announced the 2027 hajj fares, setting the prices between N7.56m and N7.88m depending on the departure zone. The highest fare will be paid by pilgrims from the Southern Zone, while those from the Maiduguri/Yola Zone will pay the least. The commission emphasized that intending pilgrims who had already deposited N5m would need to pay the remaining balance to finalize their registration.

The final deadline for uploading biometric data and settling all 2027 Hajj fares by states is set for December 2, 2026. Failure to meet these deadlines would result in the forfeiture of allocated Hajj slots.
