Religion is a double-edged sword, use it well – Nana Addo

The President of the Republic of Ghana Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo has asked Ghanaian Muslims to be weary of people who present Islam for their selfish and destructive gains.

Speaking at the Eid-Ul-Fitr prayer ceremony to mark the end of the 2017 Muslim Ramadan at the Independence Square, the President Akuffo- Addo stated that in as much as religion is functional and helps us to cope with the uncertainties of life, it is equally dysfunctional.

Nana Addo urged Ghanaian Muslims and all Muslims around the world to continue to hold hands in brotherhood and unity adding that it is the essence of Islam.

“Whether you are Allasunah, Tijania, Shia or Ahmadiyya, I remind you of the words of Allah as Captured in Quran 3:102 ; Hold fast together to the cable of Allah83 and be not divided. Remember the blessing that Allah bestowed upon you: you were once enemies then He brought your hearts together, so that through His blessing you became brothers”, he added.
