Saudi threat to Nigerian Muslims

BBC News:

Saudi Arabia has warned Nigeria that its national quota for the annual Muslim pilgrimage could be drastically cut, a Nigerian minister says.

The Saudi minister in charge of the Hajj said some 27,000 Nigerians have remained in the country illegally after completing the pilgrimage.

In a letter to the Nigerian foreign ministry, he threatened to subtract this number from this year's quota.

Last year, some 65,000 Nigerians were among the 2,5m pilgrims in Mecca.

So even the Saudis don't like Islamic illegal immigrants.
