Bravo K.M.C!

Editor,

Please, kindly allow me space in your widely read newspaper to voice out such a lucid and pertinent national issue concerning KMC?  I wish I can have a better way of making out a more tangible definition of how delighted and impressed I am about this sacred move of erecting such a religious structure, a Mosque, at the Jeswang cemetery.

This is like a blessing in disguise for worshippers who seldom converge during burials!  During the rainy season, Muslims are now assured of performing their prayers free from the burden of having to put up with the discomfort of the rains, like it was during the burial of the late Afang Yaya Marong and one Lamin Jaiteh.  May their souls rest in perfect peace. Amen!  

Development, according to Walter Rodney, is a many-sided process.  In this vein, as we are steering towards the realisation of the Silicon Valley and Vision 2020 goals, our already cherished national heritage of peace, underpinned by Islamic values of ‘Duah Jaboh’ must be nurtured and preserved relentlessly. Thanks to the leadership of this country, under our visionary leader, we are not at all suprised.

Sheikh Omar Bampha Jaiteh

Bundung.
