Bolgatanga (Upper West) 30 March ?99
Muslims in Bolgatanga observed Eid-Ul-Adha on Sunday instead of Saturday, March 27. The delay was due to an attack on the home of the Upper East Regional Chief Imam, Alhaji Yussif Adam, on Friday night by a group of men. Some members of the Chief Imam’s family were injured in the attack.
In a sermon after prayers to mark the celebration, Alhaji Adam asked Muslims to be guided by the commandments of Allah, the Quran and the tradition of the Prophet Mohammed. He called for love, unity and understanding among Muslims and prayed for the peace and prosperity of the country
