Idul Adha (composite)

From the Eastern Regional capital, Koforidua A. Kofoya-Tetteh reports that policemen had to form a human shield around a special platform within the premises of the Central Mosque to protect the Regional Chief Iman Alhaji Yusif Seidu Sulemana Amdani who led the prayers.
That was due to a problem of who should be the Regional Chief Imam which was pending at the Koforidua High Court.
Addressing the gathering after the prayers, Alhaji Amdani asked Moslems to examine themselves to see whether they were doing what Allah had asked them to do, adding that what they sow today would be reaped the next day.
He prayed for Allah for the success and good health of President Kufuor, the Vice, Alhaji Aliu Mahama, the entire members of government, the Omanhene of New Juaben, Alhaji Aliu Mahama and the entire Moslem community.
The Regional Chief Imam who appealed to all to live in peace thanked Moslem chiefs, mallams and the youth who stood by him during difficult times adding expressed the hope that such problems would be overcome for a happy, prosperous and peaceful community.
