MADAN TUESDAY AUGUST 2ND
The 17th national conference on Ramadan has ended in Bolgatanga, the Upper East Regional capital where it was resolved that Muslims all over Ghana should begin this year’s fast on Tuesday August 2nd. The participants made up of all regional Imams and other representatives issued a six point communiqué which by consensus agreed that Monday August 1st shall complete the month of Sha’ban and by that calculation Tuesday August 2nd will be an automatic day for all Muslims in Ghana to start this years’ fast. Alhaji Mohammed Ghazali Yakubu, Secretary to the conference read the communiqué which described homosexuality as “Filth” and called for concerted efforts to stop its development in Ghana. The conference also resolved that the National Hajj Board should by extension have regional representatives to enhance the quality and smooth conduct of the annual pilgrimage to the holy land of Mecca. It further expressed worry about the spate of road accidents in Ghana which required of all road users to be circumspect in the use of the roads by obeying traffic regulations. On education, the 17th national Ramadan conference held in Bolgatanga reminded Muslim parents of their sacred duty to educate their children to make them productive citizens. It is expected that all Muslims in Ghana will do away with their differences and unite for a common goal towards nation building.
