Yendi MP donates 1000 bags of rice to Muslims for EID celebration

As the month-long dawn to sunset fasting of Ramadan draws to an end, the Member of Parliament for Yendi, Honourable Farouk Aliu Mahama in the spirit of the holy season has donated one thousand bags of rice to the Muslim community in the constituency to support them celebrate the upcoming Islamic festivity, eid-ul-Fitr.

The donation aligns with his desire to enable needy Muslims and their families to undertake the big celebration with ease and joy.

The festival is considered an indispensable spiritual event on the Islamic calendar.

The 1000 bags of rice have been well-targeted and they are to be distributed to dozens of party faithfuls, opinion leaders and chiefs, youth and women groups, and the Islamic clerics(ulemas).

Honorable Farouk Aliu Mahama in his Rid message urged Muslims to endeavor to share the little they have to enable the underprivileged to enjoy the eid.

He supports Muslim brothers every Ramadan and Eid and would continue to assist. He assured.

The Member of Parliament maintains that it is his bid to nurture, grow, sustain and maintain the popularity of the party in the Yendi Constituency, a seat the NPP has held favorably.

Alhaji Farouk also admonished Muslim celebrants particularly those in Yendi to use the blessings of the eid to pray for continued peace and tranquility in the town.
