In January 2007, a circular was issued notifying Authorised Dealers and the general public about a list of pilgrims from various states of Nigeria who would be travelling for their annual Christian pilgrimage. A further update is now being provided, providing additional lists of pilgrims from several states along with their corresponding banks. It's important to note that all conditions outlined in the earlier circular remain applicable and must be complied with by Authorised Dealers when purchasing pilgrims' travel allowances. This update contains a revised list, reflecting the addition or correction of data on specific pilgrims from certain states. The total number of pilgrims has now risen to 1,289, and O.O. Akanji (Mrs.), Director of Trade & Exchange Department, reiterates her earlier directive for strict compliance with all stated conditions.
