Is the government paying all these money with people's tax money?We have pressing issues in the country to solve and you guys are busy wasting time talking of hajj?
Who is going to pay for this huge expense ? Why not let them pay their own way , if this is so important for them? Have we lost our priorities ? This makes no sense at all.
Did John Dramani Mahama ask the government of Ghana to sponsor 2025 pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia? Ghana government rather makes a lot of profit from the haj council. Government only make diplomatic arrangement but all the cost ...

Correction - I mean muppet!!
What benefit does ghana derive from sending 5000 pilgrims to Mecca at the expense of the tax payer??
You guys need to be cautious
For how long will we be pumping money into other countries in the name of religion
Yaw, when did Ghana government ever pump funds into haj? Does it mean if you're silly you eat through your anus?
These monies can be invested in the zongos and I believe Allah will appreciate it
We a doomed as Black people. Why should a Government get involved with religious activities of Citizens.
Sheer waste of taxpayer's money when none of the agenda 111 is operational.
Is same assistance available to Christians? It’s not a force to perform the Hajj. So those who can afford it can pay to go. All that the government should be doing is to make consular services available to those who would t ...

Master, government subsidises Muslims mecca trip every year. Which is nonsense to hear because they add no value to the nation only to overly wicked and violent
Akuffo Addo offered to build a cathedral????? The masses turned against him
Useless government. Why such a waste. The Hajji is optional gir Moslems. One can still go to heaven without the Hajji. Please use the money for the poor. Those who go on pilgrimage are not poor
What benefit does the country get from this Hajj thing kroaa ha. Black man’s biggest problem is religion and priorities. Common sense !!
Tawiah, is far better than to give your money to fellow Ghanaian pastor and squander and if you're not lucky, and sex your wife on top. Now, ask yourself who is human animal than you?
Mahama will be best president after Dr Kwame Nkrumah. He was enthroned after the saddened death of Prez Attah Mills and he wasn't prepared enough. From the look of things he is doing so excellently.
Why is the government getting involved in the Hadji affair? Will they also airlift Christian’s for a pilgrimage?
Ok provide an equivalent amount for the National Cathedral
Why should the government be involved in that? I thought the constitution says Ghana is a secular state.
I have said it many times that we cannot rely on Mahama to transform the country. He is not the type of guy who can transform a country because he does not know what transformation implies. He is going to build his roads, sch ...

How?
Wasting Tax Payers Money.
This is how far religion is undermining the country. We put symbolism of religion above doing good. Many Christians in Ghana put going to church above doing good or being a good person. My understanding is that Muslims are ob ...
