The Presiding Member for Akuapem North Municipal Assembly in the Eastern Region, Nana AsieduOffei hasstated that the option of peaceful coexistence of Muslims and Christians in the region particularly in the Akuapem North should not be taken lightly.
‘’Let us continue to live in harmony and unite for a common goal, because we are all preaching peace and the salvation of the lost souls for God” he said.
According to Nana Offei this would fast-track the development of the communities and to improve the living standards of the people.
Nana AsieduOffei said this at Akropong on Thursday after presenting 26 bags of rice and five boxes of cooking oil to Muslims in five towns in the municipality to observe this year’s
Eid al-Fitr. The towns are Akropong, Larteh, Mampong, Korkoom, and Mangoase.
Nana AsieduOffei who for the past nine years donated cattle, rice and edible oil to Muslim communities in the area said Christians and Muslim followers are the world’s most two powerful religions which preach peace so they should see themselves as members of one big family in the region, especially in the Akuapem North.
Religion, he said should not be a dividing factor but rather unite the people to pursue a common agenda for the rapid development of the communities.
The Muslim Chief of Akropong, Alhaji Abdel Muniru received the items on behalf of his colleagues and thanked Nana Offei for the gesture.
He stated that he has Muslims at heart, especially during Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha celebrations and therefore prayed for him, the family and the nation as a whole for Allah”s continuous blessing.
