Chairman of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON), Abdullahi disclosed this in Mecca while speaking at the 2017 pre-Arafat meeting with Hajj stakeholders.
The chairman, however, declined to disclose the identities of the deceased pilgrims and the circumstances that led to their death saying such information could only be disclosed after families of the deceased had been informed.
He pleaded with newsmen to withhold the details so as not to further devastate the families of the affected pilgrims.
81,200 Nigerian pilgrims are performing this year’s hajj.
