SAUDI ARABIA DENIES ENTRY TO 1,000 NIGERIAN WOMEN FOR NOT BEING WITH MEN

About 1,000 Nigerian women on Hajj visit are stuck at the Jeddah airport,Saudi Arabia. They were denied entry to into the country  on Wednesday because they were not accompanied by men. 
The women, who began arriving Sunday at the airport in Jeddah, in western Saudi Arabia, were facing possible deportations by Saudi authorities, said a report compiled by the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria, which oversees Nigerian participation in the Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca.

However, the Federal Government of Nigeria  has given the Saudi Arabia government 24 hours to expedite action in resolving the issues surrounding the detention of the female pilgrims. Vice President Namadi Sambo gave the ultimatum when he summoned the Saudi Arabian Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr Khaled Abdrabuh, to his office. He said reports available to him suggested that only Nigerian pilgrims were being subjected to such dehumanizing treatment and "should the Saudi authorities not desire our pilgrims to perform this year’s Hajj, they should let the country know.”

I'm confused; you are caught with man, wahala, you are without man, wahala. Which one una dey sef?
