As the muslim ummah around the world gear up to celebrate the feast of sacrifice, the MP for Yendi, Hon. Farouk Aliu Mahama in the spirit of the season has made a donation of bags of rice to the Muslim community in the Yendi constituency to support them celebrate the upcoming Islamic festivity, eid-ul-adha.
The huge donation is in consonance with his desire to enable needy Muslims and their families undertake the big celebration with ease and joy. The festival is considered as an indispensable spiritual event on the Islamic calendar.
The donation— constituting 1000 bags of rice, 50 cartons of Mackerel, 1000 bottles of cooking oil and 70 boxes of spaghetti- have been well-targeted and are to be distributed to dozens of party faithfuls, opinion leaders and chiefs, some youth and women groups and the Islamic clerics(ulemas).
Hon.Farouk Aliu Mahama urges all Muslims to endeavour to share the little they have so as to enable the underprivileged to enjoy the eid. He supports Muslim brothers every Ramadan and Eid and would continue to assist. The MP maintains that it is his bid to nurture, grow, sustain and maintain the popularity of the party in the Yendi Constituency, a seat the NPP has held favourably.
Alhaji Farouk also urges Muslim celebrants particularly those in Yendi to use the blessings of the eid to pray for continued peace and tranquility in the constituency.
