Kufuor receives Ahmadiyya Muslim's spiritual leader
Accra, April 16, Ghanadot/GNA – The
spiritual leader of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission, Hazrat
Mirza Masroor Ahmad Khalifatul Masih V, on Wednesday invoked
the blessings of God for peace and progress of the nation.
“I pray for the prosperity of your country,” he said, when
he paid a courtesy call on President John Agyekum Kufuor at
the Castle, Osu.
He is here for the centenary celebration of the Ahmadiyya
Muslim Mission.
The Ahmadi Spiritual Head, who last visited Ghana about four
years ago when he reportedly publicly expressed confidence
that Ghana was going to strike oil, noted the tremendous
transformation that had taken place in Accra by way of
infrastructural development.
He counselled the nation to learn lessons from the
experiences of other oil producing countries in order to
make best use of the resource.
President Kufuor reiterated the Government’s resolve to
ensure best practices in the management of the natural
resource, saying, “We are not going to lose our heads.”
He acknowledged the abundant blessings and kindness that God
continued to show to the country. “God has been good to
Ghana especially during my tenure.”
President Kufuor expressed appreciation for the honour done
the nation by its choice for the launch of the worldwide
anniversary celebration.
He said he was not surprised considering the fact that it
was here that the Ahmadi Spiritual Head launched himself
into the leadership of the religion.
