before you people forget.. britain never realy ruled the area called nigeria today...they only concentrated on big towns... thats why we have so many realy extremly autonimous regions that dont give a shi shi about luggard... you can say in way that nigeria-area was never realy colonized .... how many of us still realy speak correct british english sef!!!.. we were never realy dominated... 1 Like |

This is one of the reasons why our country is so fcvked up. Why not let them buy from the open market like other Nigerians? What is the economic value added of their hajj to our country? 1 Like |

This is so annoying, pathetic and sadly common in Nigeria. As a muslim I know Hajj isn't compulsory if you can't afford it. The Govt. Should be consistent, if you subsidize Hajj, you should also include; school fees, importing goods etc. People are withdrawing out of school, businesses collapsing and this is the solution? This isn't fair wallahi. 1 Like |

Whats even more annoying is that the government is run from a religious standpoint advanced countries seperate religion from governance....but well who am i to complain...religion is a virus that has eaten do deep into every nigerian aspect of life that a man would rather drop out of school n be a pastor because it was "revealed" to him than get his degree...the day nigeria seperates religion from government n common sense is used will be the beginning of advancement 1 Like |

PMB to subsidize pilgrimage by =N=197 to a Dollar. Someone should tell PMB religion is a personal thing and the quran did not say its a must to go on pilgrimage, it said you should go if you can afford it . This is crass irresponsibility on the part of Buhari (playing to the gallery). This is the same PMB that cant subsidize paying of school fees abroad or production and distribution of rice etc PMB We are watching ................ 1 Like |

ojun50: isn't that the problem with us in this country...everything prayer? use our brains we won't, when there is a problem we resort to prayer, night vigil and pilgrimage, isn't it because of this mentality that we prioritise religious pilgrimage at the expense of productive sectors of the economy in the allocation of forex? How can you criticise the govt for giving priority to pilgrimage when your own response to this problem is prayer? can you not see that you are are no different and we are our own problem? govts are a reflection of the people, the biggest problem with Nigeria are Nigerians! whoever is in govt will do the same thing because we are Nigerians!!! our collective mental pysche is not geared for progress. |

Federal Government Scam in the making... about to make some pipu millionaires & billionaires. Part of the current restructuring of nigeria is to scrap Federal Government sponsoring of Hajj / Holy Land pilgrimage,it is a slap on nigerians & is not sustainable. Pls Government stop it! We cant even pay salaries and you are doling money for pleasure trip. Pls what is the make up of our economic team. Nigerians are one of the most intelligent people on earth. Pls lets join our hands and make nigeria better than dubai cos we have what it takes. Even if it mean scrapping National Assembly & House Of Rep which they dont have in dubai but today is a master piece. 1 Like |
