The 452 pilgrims who fully paid for their Hajj trip last year but were unable to travel due to lapses on the part of the Hajj Board can now heave a sigh of relief as the current Hajj Board has made preparations to include them in this year's pilgrimage.

According to Sheikh I.C. Quaye, the current chairman of the Hajj Board, monies paid by last year's unsuccessful pilgrims to the previous board cannot be traced but for the "benevolence of President Akufo-Addo," the unsuccessful pilgrims would not have been included in this year's hajj pilgrimage.

Sheikh I.C. Quaye made this known Tuesday after MTN had presented a refurbished Hajj village by MTN Ghana to the Hajj board chairman on Tuesday.
