Meeting with His Eminence Osman Nuhu Sharubutu, The National Imam of Ghana
Chairman of SSCC accompanied the Ambassador of Colombia to Ghana and Ambassadors of Mexico to Ghana at a meeting with His Eminence Osman Nuhu Sharubutu, the National Imam of Ghana and other leading clerics.
The National Imam is now 102 years old and serves as a powerful peace builder not only in Ghana but also Africa and champion of religious tolerance. SSCC Chairman passed on special greetings from Mrs. Ela Gandhi, Co - President of World Conference on Religions for Peace international and Abdulhameed Alsaleh from Saudi Arabia and paid tribute to the National Imam of Ghana for his peacebuilding efforts, all the more important as the wind of religious intolerance is blowing in much of Sahel countries, bordering Ghana. His Eminence quoted from Quran and said that whilst God made us all diverse, he asked for respect for all religious beliefs. He extolled Ghana as a shining example of religious tolerance.
