He gave the assurance that the Ahmadiya community will support the NCCE and described the visit by Ms. Addy as welcoming.
“We well receive NCCE for the patriotic gesture of meeting the Ahmadiya Muslim Mission for the purposes of interacting with us on issues pertaining to civics.
The Ahmadiya community is very patriotic because patriotism is part of our faith.
It makes us loyal to the State and assists the State to achieve national growth and development “, Maulvi Mohammed Bin Salhi said.

“My visit here is to reignite and deepen our relationship as well as have a discussion for the common good of our nation. We are looking for new partners to promote a patriotic citizenry. When citizens are patriotic, they contribute to nation-building. We need the Ahmadiya Muslim community and other religious bodies to support the Commission on this national assignment and a constitutional obligation”, Ms. Addy added.
