JUN 12, 2016 LISTEN

The Ashanti Regional Minister is urging Muslim youth to live above reproach and complement peace before during and after this year’s elections.

Alexander Ackon told Luv News the Muslim community is a constituency under the governance of the country and should play a major role in the resolution of conflicts.

He called for introspection during the fasting period and urged the youth to consolidate peace efforts before, during and after the elections and urged them to invest in education to become professionals in their own right.

“Schooling should be important for them. They should enroll in school and become professionals in their own right. They should live good lives worthy of emulation. Election time everybody should operate peacefully for election to go on peacefully”.

Regional Chief Imam, Sheik Abdul Mumin Haroun noted the Muslim community does not desire any form of conflict, praying for any atrocity to be quenched.

“We do not want any conflict to emanate from here, so we pray that God will ward off such things. God should sustain the peace we are enjoying.”

Mr. John Alexander Ackon donated bags of sugar and Cartons of Lipton tea towards the Muslim fasting.
