Eid al-Fitr: Ghana needs you alive – Akufo-Addo to Muslim youth

President Nana Akufo-Addo has congratulated Muslims in Ghana and the world for successfully going through the one-month fast in the holy month of Ramadan and urged them, especially the youth to be moderate in their celebration to avert mishaps.

“I congratulate the Muslim Ummah of Ghana, and, by extension, the entire Muslim population of the world, for braving the pangs of hunger and thirst for an entire month”, Mr Akufo-Addo said in a statement.

“Besides the spiritual attainment of the month, you deserve commendation for the strict disciplinary code that you have adhered to throughout the period.

“I pray that Allah accepts our collective prayers, continues to shower his grace, mercies and peace on our nation and make her great and strong.

“I wish all Muslims a blissful and peaceful Eid al-Fitr celebrations. To the youth, I urge you to celebrate with caution. The nation needs you alive”, he added.
