Executive Secretary, Lagos State Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board, Mr. Muftau Okoya, has requested pilgrims who intend to embark on Y2016 Hajj to submit their E-Passports to their coordinators at the pilgrims Board.According to him, “intending Pilgrims are expected to start the submission of their E- Passport on Friday, 1st July, 2016, to enable the Board commence processing of visas for a hitch free Hajj.”
He added that intending pilgrims are to submit the original E-passport, as well as a photocopy of the data page, adding that delay or ignoring to submit will affect the processing/documentation negatively.
Mr. Okoya thereafter informed the general public that Y2016 Hajj forms are still available for purchase.
