The Vice President and Flagbearer of the NPP, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, will commission the Walewale Central Mosque in Walewale on Friday, November 15.
The new mosque, built by Dr. Bawumia, who hails from the town, is fitted with modern facilities for both men and women and offices for the Imam.
Walewale has a large Muslim population, and the town’s old mosque has been unable to accommodate the population over the past years.
The magnificent mosque, whose construction started a few years ago, 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, and 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.
Although a Muslim, Dr. Bawumia has also notably extended strong support in various forms, including personal contributions towards the building and renovation of chapels and schools, as well as other programs of the Christian community.
