Galadima also disclosed that the team diagnosed 30 patients with mental challenges.

 

 

According to him, they are currently undergoing treatment and expected to perform hajj.

“We have been managing them in our facilities. We have about four psychiatrists in the team. We have been managing them and all of them would likely perform hajj because they are a bit stable now,”
