The Director-General of the Board, Alhaji Ahmed Umar Labbo, disclosed this in a press statement issued through the Board’s Public Relations Officer, Comrade Habibu Yusif Babura.
Alhaji Labbo revealed that all necessary arrangements have been concluded to ensure the commencement of the pilgrims’ airlifting in May.
