At a news conference held at the Hajj Village in Accra, Ghana, the chairman of the Hajj Board, Mr Ben Abdallah Banda, announced that Muslim pilgrims from Ghana will be paying GH¢75,000 for this year’s Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia.
It is worth noting that the fee remains unchanged compared to last year.
Mr Banda emphasized that the cost of the package would remain the same, regardless of any potential fluctuations in the cedi’s value against the dollar.
He expressed satisfaction in fulfilling the promise made to the pilgrims, stating that no additional expenses would be passed on to them due to unforeseen discrepancies in the overall costs.
To facilitate the necessary preparations for Hajj, including the presentation of passports, visa issuance, and flight arrangements, the payment deadline for the Hajj fare has been set for mid-March 2024.
It is crucial for potential pilgrims to adhere to this timeline to ensure a smooth and timely process.
By maintaining an affordable fee structure and prioritizing the convenience of the pilgrims, the Hajj Board aims to facilitate a successful and spiritually enriching Hajj pilgrimage experience for Ghanaian Muslims in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
