Sarbah Hall Alumni and Ghana Muslim Students Association Emphasize Peaceful Co-existence at Legon ‘Iftar’

The Mensah Sarbah Hall Alumni of the University of Ghana, in collaboration with the Ghana Muslim Students Association, marked the annual ‘Iftar’ at Legon. The event focused on breaking the fast and was an opportunity for the attendees to reflect on the importance of peace in society.

His Eminence Francis Seth Albert Nyonyo, a Member of the Council of State and President of the Sarbah Hall Alumni Association, emphasized the need for peaceful co-existence among Ghanaians for the progress and development of the nation. According to him, justice and respect for individual views are essential for promoting peace in society.

Nyonyo explained that citizens’ confidence in governance systems increases when security is guaranteed and impartiality is maintained. This provides a sense of security that allows citizens to live and work without fear of being threatened.

The importance of fasting as a spiritual exercise was also highlighted. His Eminence Nyonyo said that fasting is a way for Muslims to get rid of undesirable habits while increasing their fortitude and patience.

He urged Muslims to follow Islamic doctrines and be their brother’s keeper, ensuring that their behavior reflects positively on society.

The event was an opportunity for the attendees to socialize and network, strengthening the bond between the two groups. The organizers hope that such events will continue to promote peaceful co-existence among Ghanaians.

The Iftar event was attended by members of the Sarbah Hall Alumni Association, the Ghana Muslim Students Association, and other guests. It was an enjoyable and enlightening experience that provided an opportunity for attendees to reflect on the importance of peace and unity in Ghana.
