Speaking on Good Evening Ghana, Sheikh Shuaib said the National Chief Imam’s GHS50,000 donation towards the building of the cathedral is only a symbolic gesture and not a call to order Muslims to follow suit.
“What Chief Imam has done is not telling all Muslims to go and give but as a response to the visitors that came to him, we want to emphasize the symbolic gesture that I am talking about.
“What it means is that the Chief Imam is not opposed to in any way to the building of the Cathedral because that is a Christian project. He is not opposed to it, and to show that gesture, he gave that amount. So he is not telling Muslims that because of what I have done, so you too go …”
As a reminder, Ghana’s Chief Imam in the person of Sheikh Osmanu Nunhu Sharubutu has donated 50,000ghc towards the construction of the National Cathedral.
The Chief Imam made the announcement when the chairman and members of the board of trustees of the National Cathedral paid a courtesy call on him to congratulate him on the successful completion of the National mosque today, Thursday, August 26, 2021.
