Kerewan Mosque, Thank You All

Editor,

Please allow me a small apace in your widely read paper to say a few words of thanks on behalf of the people of Baddibou Kerewan and on my own humble behalf. I wish to register our sincere thanks and appreciations to Alh. Jawara of Bakau Newtown and to all citizens of  Kerewan who provided the labour force, for the reconstruction of the central mosque of Kerewan.

As one of his continuous generosity and magnanimity, Alh. Jawara has recently embarked upon sponsoring the reconstruction and transformation of the Kerewan mosque from a 1966 building into a beautiful, bigger, magnificent and modern mosque.

This laudable project was made possible through the selfless collective efforts of our good residents, who physically contributed their skilled and unskilled labour to accomplish this giant project.

This new impressive mosque does not only provide bigger space to accommodate worshippers but also hugely enhanced improved the image of the Muslim ‘Ummah’ in the area.

To Alh. Jawara therefore, I say thank you for your generous philanthropy in the course of Allah, and to our selfless residents whose tirelessly physical efforts and contribution accomplished the project, I say thank you for a job well-done. I would have said more than a mere thank you but please do accept. May God the Almighty reward every one for their efforts and contributions. May God bless our nation and the entire Muslim ‘Ummah’ and guide us onto the right path.

Editor’s Note: I stopped at Kerewan on my recent trip from Kotu to Koina and I must say I was very impressed by all the development taking place around your home town. Well done all and keep up the effort.
