    I wonder if there is an editor for this Ghanaweb. how can 450 pilgrims use 12 flights. so, 37 or 38 pilgrims for one flight. common sense.

  • Asbat lambo 9 years ago

    Well said

  • Kaymensah 9 years ago

    450 pilgrims, 12 flights! Why, are they going to use taxi-size planes?

  • Mike Olongo, USA 9 years ago

    I guess they are going to use ordinary passenger flights; not chartered.

  • Israel Jude 9 years ago

    They're flying with Ibrahim Dramani Mahama's airlines Inc. So it will fly 12 schedules, that's 12 planes. Mind you it's Dagomba-Gonja-Wala-Mamprusis arithmatics.

    Why is Ghana Government paying for somebody to go to heaven and have his seven virgins. Religion and state should be different. If I want my salvation I will have to pay for it myself and not expect a Government for all Ghana ...

    No one is paying for anybody. The once that government pays are for its party people. Unfortunately it is not party money that is being used.I doubt if God will accept such Hajj

  • Hafiz Techiman. 9 years ago

    Since alhaji Tanko took over the hajj has been smooth and successful. Each flight takes 450. So 12 flight will be 250 × 12 =5400.It is simple. Wishing the hajj committee all the best of success

  • Atoapoma Abransamadu 9 years ago

    So you guys have this money (10,000 cedis X 4500) but can't even build toilets and boreholes for your poor communities in the three northern regions?

    Water toilets and schools would please Allah. Before going to Mecca you must have your house in order and I know many Ghanaians who are not ready to go. Mecca tourism is not cool

  • USMAN. 9 years ago

    Ahmadis don't go to Mecca yet they build good schools. Those who spend their wealth to seek titles in Mecca come home empty handed only to fight for rights in missionary schools built with Christian sweat. What an irony.
