Lawan said in a tweet that he returned to the country early Thursday.

He added that he offered prayers for the peace, progress and unity of Nigeria.

“At about 1am this morning, I arrived Nigeria from Saudi Arabia where I joined other Muslim faithful across the world to perform this year’s Hajj. While in the Holy Land, I offered prayers for the peace, progress and unity of Nigeria,” Lawan said.
