It's simple. I have said it and I am repeating it.

1. All moslems must register with the nearest police station and military bases and report themselves every 3 days to the security agencies.

2. all zongo meetings and mosque activities be registered and monitored by the police and army.

3. more than 3 moslems must never be allowed as a group.

4. no moslem should hold public office.

5. every moslem home must have wireless security camera and radars to monitor and watch them remotely

6. all moslem must have a household register to mark the register every 3 days.

7. moslem schools should be converted into christian schools and if possible all mosques and zongos must preach the bible.

8. all qurans be seized and burnt.

Period. !!! Moslems are disgrace to ghana and the world

EFO!!! isn't it ironic that as a so-called 'Efo' you reason like this?
People like you ARE AS DANGEROUS TO THE GHANAIAN SOCIETY AND HUMANITY AT LARGE THAN THE EVIL ISIS. It is not the religion per se but people's understanding of it and how they live it. Have you heard of Joseph Kone who formed the Lord's Resistance Army [LRA], in East Africa? The last time I checked, he was not Muslim but a Christian. Check out Jim Jones who ended up committing mass suicide with his followers in the Caribbean because they want to meet the 'Lord' quickly. The military forces of the Western World that drop missiles often killing many innocent non-combatants are quite often 'guided' by what they think is their Christian values. The world has just finished celebrating the anniversary of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki Atomic bombings that killed thousands at one go with decades of 'slow-dying' repercussions. That Atomic Bomb was dropped by the Holier-than-thou United States of America! You take a second to ask yourself, that is if you are sane enough to be able to do that,: Where are these arms ISIS has been using come from? Oh, Yes, you would say they just buy them from the Open Market! Oh I see , so there are markets out there, not owned by these 'evil Muslims' where you can buy these evil weapons in so far as you have the money right? The reasoning that 'ALL MUSLIMS IN GHANA ARE FOREIGNERS is as dumb as the thinking of ISIS, probably even worse!
If we are to follow your recommendation to the letter, we might have to dispense with Christianity itself because it is also a 'foreign' religion. You see how narrow and dangerous your ideas are? People of all religions, races, nations, etc. have criminals amongst them and Religion is often used as an EXCUSE to get across their warped views.If you are really a sane human being, and not a Cyborg, try and use your God-given Intellect for once. This is for your own sanity and May the Good Lord Help you in that. Amen.

Islam is very dangerous... In their koran there is reward for kiliing an infidel... What kind of religion is that. They see themselves are kafr.. Thats y shia and sunnis r busy killing themselves.. I not a fun of christianity to but christians have so many sects and donomination but never fight each other... when u go to d universities, the muslim young men are constanly watching religious videos such as debate btn christian and moslem teachings, propaganda by d US against Islam... They tell u every terrorist attack in Cnn n co. is a ploy to discredit Islam but that is a big lie. Is happening here in Africa you dont even have to look far.. Even our own professor poet was lost to these crazies.... Every moslem will tell u dey dont support ISIS cos they even kill moslems but that is a lie.. The rich ones among them have been wiring money to isis that is y they are d richest terrerorist group in the world. I know there are good moslems out der who genuiely hate terror.. But I tell u they are very few becos their koran endorses terror..

Dear Dawonda,
Thank you for your article, but sadly the coward efo will not understand a word of it, he is a low level creature who has nothing to offer Ghana but calamity. Can we remind him that it wasn't muslims that crucified Jesus. What is his take on the bombs being dropped on innocent civilians in the middle east as we speak ? Does he has any idea who created Isis? Anyway lets not waist our precious time on this idiot.

you are fire-breathing moslem stop pretending that u are not a moslem. Today, u ve seen that being a moslem is the stupidest thing for a God-loving, human-centered, peace-loving, fellow-feeling to belong. God is not happy when ppl are killed, others loose their homes and sleep in refug camps. iIf Allah is happy wt that, then Allah is the devil. If u think the west(America) has thrown bombs to kill ppl why don't the ISIS attack the west but innocent ppl? The sale of arms in the open market does not gv anybody the right to try to use those arms to impose islam on ppl. Arabs are wicked ppl n the sooner GH moslms know about this the better.

PRESS RELEASE

SADAQA TRAIN VEHEMENTLY DENIES THE ALLEGATIONS OF TERRORISM AND EXTREMISM LEVELED AGAINST THE GROUP

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE MOST MERCIFUL

The executive and the entire membership of Sadaqa Train would like to clear the air regarding the reports making rounds in the mass media that have put the reputation of this innocuous group at stake. We would like to make it categorically clear, that the mission of the group are at complete variance with extremism and terrorism.

SADAQA TRAIN
The word “sadaqa” is an Arabic word which means Voluntary Charity. Sadaqa train is an association of Muslim Youth registered as a Non-Governmental Organisation with the Registrar General’s Department and our main aim is to bridge the gap of comfort and knowledge between the cities and rural communities in Ghana. To achieve this noble cause, we have visited 11 communities in the Northern, Central, Eastern, Ashanti and Volta Regions since our inception in August 2013 (Ramadan 1434). Our recent visits were to three Prisons on Wednesday, 1st July 2015 at the sector levels namely; Nsawam Prison, Kumasi Central Prison and Tamale Prison. We undertake four main trips in a year (One every quarter). During each of our charity trips, we provide the indigenes with donations in both cash and kind, share with them some Islamic literature, engage them in lectures relevant to their situation and try to find out how best we can make Islamic knowledge more accessible to them. Our medical team also provides free medical screening for the people.

Praise be to Allah, we now have three main teams handling the ten regions divided into sectors. We have:

The Southern Sector taking care of Greater Accra, Eastern, Western, Central and Southern Volta regions.

The Middle Sector handling Ashanti, Brong Ahafo and Northern Volta regions. And then

The Northern Sector catering for Northern, Upper East and Upper West regions.

The activities for the Southern Sector which doubles as our Headquarters are coordinated in Accra. Those for the Middle Sector are coordinated in Kumasi and then those for the Northern Sector are coordinated in Tamale.

Our main source of funding has been the general public who donate to us both in cash and in kind.

The only relationship we had with Nazir was for peaceful purposes, viz. to assist our association in reaching out to poor Muslims in the rural communities. The only discussions we had on our whatsapp group were for preparations towards embarking on our journeys to the hinterlands. We hereby reiterate, that we don't discuss extremism or terrorism on our group as these are at total variance with our muslim creed which enjoins peace and peaceful co-existence. We deeply share in the grief and pain of the family of our brother Nazir Nortei Alema as Nazir was briefly part of our WhatsApp group and only joined our last two recent charity trips but never discussed such issues with us. We pray that Allah increase the family in patience and also pray that Allah guides Nazir’s heart and steps back home to his family.

CLARIFICATION
We find it unfortunate, that the mass media has widely circulated untrue reports about the Sadaqa Train without even a cursory inquiry from any of its members. For the avoidance of doubt, we would like to make the following clear:

Sadaqa Train is an innocuous organisation with a peaceful mission of reaching out to Muslims in the hinterland for purposes of sharing knowledge and charity. We encourage the media to conduct independent investigations in the communities we have visited.

Our whatsapp group has never discussed extremist ideas nor have we even remotely entertained any ideas of terrorist activities. This can also be easily verified by the media.

Nobody from Nazir Nortei Alema’s family contacted the leader or any member of the Sadaqa Train.

The Sadaqa Train’s whatsapp group was created on 3rd August, 2013 and has remained active ever since. For the avoidance of doubt, we would like to reiterate that our group has never been disconnected. Our discussions are open to the public and are devoid of any extremist or terrorist sentiments.

For the foregoing reasons, we would like to register our distaste and displeasure at the false news making rounds about us as they are likely to have serious repercussions on our members, our benefactors, and our beneficiaries. Notwithstanding our displeasure, we hope to work with the mass media, to find an amicable solution to this problem. We shall take all necessary steps to redeem our image and reputation, which hitherto had remained unscathed. We end in the name of Allah with the universal Islamic salutations of peace.
