Hajj Abubakar Yakubu Batalima, the Executive Director of Society for Assistance for Orphans and Disabled (SAFOAD), has been conferred with an Outstanding Achievement Award by the National Ima of Ahlussuna Wal Jama's, Sheikh Umar Ibrahim Imam as a recognition of his benevolence and for making life better for the under-privileged in the Muslim communities.

Hajj Batalima and Sheikh Ibrahim Imam took the opportunity to pray for President John Dramani Mahama for Allah's guidance, wisdom and protection in all his endeavours.

They also used the occasion to plead with the Chairman of the National Peace Council and the President of the Ghana Journalists Association (GJA), to call on the media to stop the repetition of speeches or utterances of individuals or groups that have the potential to disturb the peace of the country.

The award ceremony which took place at the residence of Hajj Batalima was witnessed by Major Gaf Desu, Sheikh Abbass and other dignitaries of the Ahlussuna Wal Jama'a.
