Former Madina Constituency Member of Parliament, Hon. Boniface Abubakari, and a team of New Patriotic Party (NPP) members representing Hon. Alan Kyerematen joined hundreds of sympathizers to commiserate with the family of late Dr Sheikh Osman Bawa Hafiz at Asawase in the Ashanti Region.
The Trade Minister's representatives led by Hon. Boniface Abubakari Sadiq and Issahaku Kotomah also made donations of the undisclosed cash amounts and other stuff to support the family.
Their visit was warmly welcomed by the family and many others.
Dr Sheikh Osman, also known as Orlando, died in his private residence at Old Tafo in Kumasi on Thursday morning.
He served as the Chief Executive Officer of the Muslim Executive Foundation and secretary to the Supreme Council for Islamic Teachings and Research.
Speaking at the event, Hon. Boniface Abubakari said the late Dr Sheikh Osman was a patriotic citizen and a man of integrity, given how he imparted lives in Zongo communities.
"He was a peaceful unifier and a practical teacher to everybody who encountered him," he said. "It is understandable why the Minister of Trade and Industries, Hon. Kyerematen deems it expedient and highly imperative that he would be visibly represented on this occasion."
Late Dr Osman brought light into the lives of several children and adults through his generous activities.
Many residents mourn his passing describing it as a blow to close relatives, the entire Muslim community, and Ghana at large.
His death brought together Muslim scholars, chefs, businessmen, among others.
The late Dr Sheikh Osman was buried at the Tafo cemetery.
His burial was one of the most memorable events in the Ashanti Region. Dr Sheikh Osman served as the Chief Executive Officer of Muslim Executive Foundation and secretary to Supreme Council for Islamic Teachings and Research.
He was 63 years old and left behind six children — three sons and 3 daughters. Dr Sheikh Osman lost his wife, Hajia Maliya Ibrahim, on September 7, 2020, just a year before his passing on.
He taught at Ahwiaa Institute of Islamic Education, Higher Institute of Islamic Studies, and Al-Azhariyya Islamic School between 1992 and 2021.
He did a Bachelor of Art (B.A.) in Arabic and Islamic studies at Madina University in Saudi Arabia in 1987, B.A. in Business Administration at Northwestern Christian University in 2008, and M.A. at the same University in 2011.
