Upper East Moslems Celebrate Eid-Ul-Fitr

Bolgatanga, Oct 14, GNA- Moslems have been called upon to pray for sustenance of peace especially during the forthcoming Presidential and Parliamentary elections.

The Upper East Regional Imam of Moslems, Yusif Adams, made the call in Bolgatanga, Upper East Region during this year's Celebration of Eid-Ul-Fitr of Moslems on Saturday.

He urged Politicians to preach their messages devoid of insults since that does not augur well for democracy, saying Politicians needed to demonstrate maturity in their campaigns. He also entreated Moslems sects to co-exist peacefully since peace was the bedrock of development of every nation, adding that the Islamic Religion was a Religion of peace and not a Religion of violence. The Imam urged all Moslems to work harder to generate higher productivity wherever they found themselves. This, he noted, would attract more blessings to them from Allah. 14 Oct. 07
