Lagos charges Muslim pilgrims on good conduct in Saudi Arabia

Deputy Governor Obafemi Hamzat has urged Lagos State pilgrims for this year’s hajj to be of good conduct during stay in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.

He gave the charge, yesterday, at one-day seminar and special prayers for the intending pilgrims, organised by Lagos State Pilgrims Welfare Board in Ikeja.

Hamzat admonished them to represent Nigeria well in the holy land.  

His words: “You are ambassadors of Lagos State and Nigeria. When you get to the holy land, let them see that you are of good conduct, and we understand the religion of Islam. You should not fight, but focus on the spiritual benefits you stand to gain from the pilgrimage.”
