The brand new mosque built for Efikelegu Muslim Community in Dekina LGA of Kogi State has been unveiled with a call on able bodied Muslims to emulate Senator Jibril Isa Echocho by opening accounts with their Creator.
The State Chairman of Jama’atu Nasril Islam, Ambassador Usman Bello, who was represented by the State Secretary, Alhaji Isa Adeboye, made the call while unveiling the beautiful edifice at Efikelegu in Dekina Local Government Area today.
Ambassador Usman Bello described Senator Jibril Isa Echocho as a Politician with a difference whose thirst for a favourable meeting with God is unparalleled stressing the need for others so endowed to emulate his consciousness of the hereafter.
He congratulated the Muslim Community of Efikelegu for being lucky to be blessed with a unique place of worship urging them to ensure it’s proper care at all times.
The JNI Leader used the opportunity to pray fervently for the Chief Imam of Abocho, Ustaz Suleiman Dansoho who fronted the project urging him not to be tired as there was more work to do for Allah. He also praised his sincerity which ensured that fund released for the project was judiciously utilized.
In an admonition, the Imam of JNI Mosque, Lokoja, Alhaji Usman Tauheed called on the less endowed to also compete in amassing Allah’s reward for doing good.
Imam Tauheed said there were other things Muslims could do to earn Allah’s favours including calling people from evil to good, good neighborliness, ensuring a God fearing family among others.
Speaking earlier on how it all began, Imam Suleiman Dansoho said Senator Jibril Isa Echocho saw the picture of the sorry sight of the Mosque and picked interest as he sought to build it to earn Allah’s reward. The rest he noted was what was presented to the Community today.
The event was attended by the State Treasurer of JNI, Alhaji Musa Abdulkareem Audu, Chairman, Council of Ulamau in Dekina LGA, Ustaz Muhammad Azakiru, Kogi East Zonal Coordinator of JNI, Alhaji Mesuna Malle Idris among others.
