Malik said the board had commenced a full refund despite the initial cost deduction for their inoculation, clothes, bags and some other charges as approved by Governor Seyi Makinde.
He added that the board had embarked on another round of refunds of unspent funds from the 2022 Hajj fare to pilgrims.
He called on the pilgrims to visit the account section of the board along with their receipts to claim their funds.
