Stop using mosque I built for Muslims at Kotobabi Nkansa Djan in Accra to dupe people —Alhaji Sinare warn scammers

Former High Commissioner to Egypt and Saudi Arabia and ex-National Vice Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), H.E Alhaji Said Sinare, is currently seething with anger over a nefarious scheme orchestrated by dishonest individuals involving a mosque he constructed for the Muslim community of Kotobabi Nkansa Djan in the Greater Accra Region, in memory of his late father, Major Saleh Said Sinare.

Allegations have surfaced that these unscrupulous individuals are exploiting the mosque, named the Masjid Sheikh Salifu Sinare Mosque, to illicitly solicit funds from local and international donors, non-governmental organizations, and individuals.

Alhaji Said Sinare, also known as the founder of Zongos for the NDC, and CEO of the Masjid Sheikh Salifu Sinare Mosque, has vehemently denounced these criminal activities, expressing his dismay at the exploitation of the mosque for personal gain.

He clarified that while a committee was established to oversee the mosque's daily operations, it does not seek or accept monetary contributions for any purpose related to the mosque's upkeep or administration.

Furthermore, he emphasized that neither the mosque's management nor himself bears any responsibility for damages resulting from the misuse of the mosque's name or likeness.

The matter has been reported to the police for appropriate action, and Alhaji Said Sinare urges the public to disregard and reject the fraudulent activities perpetrated by these deceitful individuals.

He cautioned the public against engaging with any platforms or materials associated with the imposters, emphasizing that such interactions are undertaken at one's own risk.

In his final remarks, Alhaji Said Sinare reiterated his plea for the public to refrain from donating money or goods to those exploiting Major Saleh Sinare's mosque for personal gain, urging vigilance and discernment in their dealings.

READ THE FULL STATEMENT BELOW:

‼️ MUST-READ DISCLAIMER ‼️
IMPERSONATION AND FRAUD
I have become aware of some immoral and unlawful activities carried out by unscrupulous individuals who are fraudulently soliciting funds from both local and international donors, NGOs, and individuals by using a mosque that I built for the Muslim community of Kotobabi Nkansa Djan in the Greater Accra Region, in memory of my late father, Major Saleh Said Sinare.

These criminals have been using pictures of the ultra-modern MASJID SHEIKH SALIFU SINARE mosque to deceive unsuspecting members of the public for their own selfish interests.

The MASJID SHEIKH SALIFU SINARE MOSQUE was built solely by me to promote Islam and peace in the Muslim communities of the Greater Accra Region. Although a committee has been set up to manage the daily operations of the facility, they do not solicit or accept money from anyone for investments, restructuring of the facility, or management of its affairs.

The management and CEO of the facility are not responsible for any damages arising from the use of, or reference to, this disclaimer.

Although this venomous criminal activity has been reported to the police for necessary action, I want to passionately urge the general public to disregard and ignore the wicked and non-biblical fraudulent activities of these heartless individuals behind these scams.

I hereby appeal to the public to refrain from donating, whether in cash or kind, to those using Major Saleh Sinare's mosque to make money. Anyone who engages with these criminals or any other platform and material promoted by the imposters does so at their own risk.

Thank you.
Signed,
H.E Alhaji Said Sinare,
Former High Commissioner to Egypt and Saudi Arabia,

Former National Vice Chairman of the NDC,
CEO OF MASJID SHEIKH SALIFU SINARE MOSQUE.
