Receiving the items, the District Chief Imam, Alhaji Mallam Issah Tahiru Seidu thanked the former MP and Deputy Minister for the kind gesture.

The donation was presented on behalf of the MP for Zebilla by Mohammed Osman Dabre, a constituency communication member of the New Patriotic Party and his aide, Gebriala.
