The Kwara Muslim Pilgrims Board says the inaugural flight from the General Tunde Idiagbon International Airport in Ilorin for the 2024 Muslim Pilgrimage will now be on Tuesday.
The board however added in Ilorin on Sunday that further information would soon be released to guide all its pilgrims and the general public.
Alhaji Abdulkadir Abdulsalam, the board’s Executive Secretary, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that pilgrims from Kwara had initially been scheduled to have their first flight on Monday.
“But the change in the date was from National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) and airlines, owing to delays in the initial plans.
“While this slight change is regretted, it is totally out of the control of the state pilgrims board or the local authorities.
