Over 4,000 Ghanaian pilgrims went to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to perform the annual Hajj ritual in 2024.

Two Ghanaian Hajj pilgrims also died in 2024. Reports indicated that the deceased persons, believed to be from Damongo in the Savannah region, passed away on Sunday, June 9, and Wednesday, June 12, 2024.
