Chief Imam To Organise 2009 Hajj

Sheikh Osman Nuhu Sharubutu, National Chief Imam will organise the 2009 Hajj.

A statement signed by Alhaji Awaisu Bio, Public Relations Officer of the office of the National Chief Imam said the Chief Imam has the mandate to select the country's representative to the Hajj conference.

Since the tenure of office of the Interim Management Hajj Committee 2008 terminated with the dissolution of the Committee, the Chief Imam therefore had to select new representatives for this year's conference which he did within his jurisdictions.

The statement said the membership of a new Hajj Committee will be announced soon to begin preparations for the 2009 Hajj and the Chief Imam expected that all Ghanaians would cooperate for a successful Hajj 2009.

The Chief Imam appealed for peace and stability for the nation and the progress of all citizens.
