Senator Dr. Doh Ganyonga III of Mezam Division, who is also Fon of Bali Nyonga, in Bali Sub Division, Mezam, North West Region, has supported the Muslim Community of Bali in rehabilitation work of their mosque in Njenka.

Fon Senator Doh Ganyonga was in communion with the Muslim Community, on May 27, 2016, at the premises of the mosque in Njenka, Bali, where he gave out an undisclosed amount.

The leader of the Muslim Community in Bali, Chief Mohammadou Madugu told The Median that by the time of the final completion of the mosque, a colossal sum of FCFA 17 million would have been consumed in the process.

In his address to the Muslims who had gathered in their hundreds to welcome their August guest, Senator Ganyonga said he had come to join hands with them to build their house of worship. He noted that no matter how huge the project may be, it must be started from somewhere.

The Senator appealed to the leaders of the Muslim Community to be gender sensitive as they construct the mosque so that the women folk can have a place in the mosque. Senator Ganyonga hailed the loyalty of the Muslims to the government of President Paul Biya and to the institutions of the state.

The Senator recalled the atrocities being carried out by the Boko Haram terrorists. He advised the Muslims to denounce all such acts and report all suspected and strange individuals in their midst.

“Report all strange faces to the Police, the Gendarmerie or to the Divisional Officer,” Senator Doh advised. He assured the Muslims that he had heard of their problems about land, promising that he would look into the problem and bring lasting solutions.

Meanwhile Chief Mohammadou Madugu, speaking on behalf of the Muslim folks pledged their total support to the Senator, and loyalty to the government of President Paul Biya. He noted that his people were wishing the Senator continuous rise to other top positions of the state. The Muslim Chief appreciated the gifts from the Senator.

It is worth noting that in addition to the cash donation, the Senator also handed over to the people bags of salt and cartons of boxes of matches. The people, through their leader pledged to use the gifts judiciously.
