The Managing Director of Alkauthar Travels and Tours, Hajiya Rabiat Umar has called on all intending pilgrims who signified their intention to travel for Hajj 2024 through the company to hasten and complete their registration processes.
In a chat with HAJJ REPORTERS on Thursday, Hajiya Rabiat said the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON), had given all Private Tour Operators until Friday, April 19 to make payments or risk losing the chance to register pilgrims.
“It is only after payments that one can have access to the portal for visa issuance and time is fast spent already. So, it is better for all intending pilgrims to please complete their registration,” she said.
The Alkauthar MD also said authorities in Saudi Arabia are serious about closing the visa portal at the end of this month.
“The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has fixed April 29 as the last day to issue visas and that date remains sacrosanct. So, we basically have just 10 days to print all visas, there is no time to waste,” she added.
