Most Nigerian celebrities are known for constantly showing off important parts of their lives online. The 2023 hajj, despite its holy importance, did not stop some Yoruba movie stars from giving netizens updates.
For some, the holy pilgrimage marks their final submission to Allah as Muslims, and for others, their life experienced an increase.
Nollynaijanews has compiled a list of celebrities who have got fans gushing over their updates from Hajj.
1. Mercy Aigbe in Makkah The actress finally decided to fully embrace Islam because of her husband, Kazeem Adeoti, aka Adekaz.
2. Kemi Korede in Makkah The actress stirred huge reactions after she shared a video of herself praying for the ex-National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) boss, MC Oluomo, in Makkah. Like others, Kemi Korede shared updates of important moments and even took out time to pray for her fans.

4. Kemi Afolabi in Makkah This is reportedly not the actress’ first time on a holy pilgrimage, but she still shared a photo with fans. Kemi Afolabi shared a photo of herself looking stunning in a hijab, a piece of clothing she doesn’t really flaunt in Nigeria. The mum of one also showered herself with beautiful prayers.
5. Cute Abiola welcomes son in Makkah Cute Abiola will return to Nigeria as a first-time father as his wife had their son in Makkah.
Sharing the good news, the skit maker shared a photo of his pregnant wife before she had their child. For Cute Abiola, the mere fact that his son was born in the holy land automatically qualifies him to be called ‘an Alhaji’.
