Bawumia To Commission New Walewale Central Mosque On Friday

Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia will on Friday, November 15, commission the Central Mosque in Walewale.

The new mosque built by Dr. Bawumia who hails from the town is fitted with contemporary facilities for both men and women section as well as offices for the Imam.

Walewale has a huge Muslim population and the town's old mosque over the years cannot accommodate the population.

The magnificent mosque has been expanded to provide enough space for the town's growing population.

The commissioning of the mosque is expected to coincide with the congregational Friday (Jummah) prayers in the afternoon.

Traditional rulers, Imams as well as the Walewale community and its surroundings are expected to attend.

Vice President Bawumia has over the years extended support to the Zongo and Muslim community in various forms including personally funding the construction and renovation of mosques and schools across the country.

Eventhough a Muslim, Dr. Bawumia has also notably extended strong support including making personal contributions towards building and renovation of chapels, schools and other programmes of the Christian community.
