Vice-President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia on Sunday, 12 May 2019 ended the first phase of his 2019 nationwide Ramadan tour in the Eastern Region.

In the course of the day, he paid a courtesy call on the chiefs and elders of Ofoase and also visited the Nkawkaw, Ofoase-Ayerebi and Oda Central mosques to join his fellow Muslims to pray.

Dr Bawumia admonished the communities to live in harmony and pray for those in government, and also support those in authority to achieve the aim of developing and sustaining the growth of Ghana.

Dr Bawumia said throughout the visits, he realised that “the Zongos recognise the good works and programmes rolled out by the government of Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo,” adding that: “There is, however, more to be done, and we are committed to doing more.”

He said the government will continue to implement policies that address the immediate and long-term needs of all Ghanaians, particularly the poor and vulnerable, including those in the Zongos.
