THE Anbariya Sunni Community in Tamale has commended Ghanaians for ensuring a successful and peaceful general election in the country, in spite of the apparent tensions and apprehensions that characterised the campaigning.
“We believe that Ghana’s democracy has come of age and we have demonstrated that the country remains a beacon of hope on the African continent. For this reason, the government and the people of Ghana deserve commendation,” they stated.
The Spiritual Head and Leader of the Community, Sheikh Saeed Abubakar Zakaria, also congratulated the President, John Atta Mills and his Vice, Mr John Mahama for their elevation to the highest office of Presidency.
“We must, therefore, thank the Almighty for the peaceful elections and continue to pray and seek His guidance in the coming years; we must continuously pray to the Almighty to guide Ghana to the right path,” the leader admonished.
He further commended President Mills, who he described as humble, wise and God-fearing, will “not carry any stick of vendetta, but will allow the rule of law to work.”
“We are also calling on President Mills to create the condition that will enable Ghanaians to ask what they can do for Ghana and not what Ghana can do for them,” the leader indicated, adding that, “Ghanaians will be willing to sacrifice for the development of their country when they see honesty and dedication in the leadership.”
Sheikh Zakaria further prayed for Allah’s blessings and guidance for the President and his government; he also prayed for courage for the President to lead an exemplary life that would inspire the confidence of Ghanaians.
