SAUDI TO GIVE FAMILIES OF DEAD PILGRIMS N70 Million NAIRA EACH
Saudi to give families of dead pilgrims N70m each
Families of the six Nigerian pilgrims who died in the last Friday’s crane collapse in Saudi Arabia’s grand Mosque will get N70 million each.
They will also be entitled to two Hajj slots each next year to be fully paid for by the Saudi government.
The custodian of the two Holy Mosques, King Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud on Tuesday ordered that top officials of the Saudi Binladin Group be banned from traveling outside the kingdom after the probe of the incident partially blamed the construction company for the crane crash.
The Saudi authority announced that families of each of the 111 people who died in the accident will be paid a compensation of one million Saudi Riyals.
One Saudi Riyal is the equivalent to N70.
