Zak Rahman, the NPP parliamentary candidate for the Ayawaso East constituency, had a busy and spiritually-meaningful day on Saturday as he attended multiple important religious programs across the area.

It was a tall list of events for the parliamentary hopeful who has already expressed commitment to be there for his people.

The day began with Rahman paying his respects at the Dua (funeral) for Aunty Azumi, a founding member of the NPP's National Nasara Wing, held at the Kardo Mosque. Rahman described it as a "solemn occasion to pay our respects and offer prayers for this beloved community member."

Following the funeral, Rahman attended the closing Tafsir (Quranic lecture) sessions at several mosques in Ayawaso East.

First, he went to the final remarks by Malam Awal Kawai at his mosque in Nima, calling Malam Kawai's "insightful commentary on the Quran deeply inspiring for the congregation."

Rahman then visited the closing Tafsir led by Malam Rauf Fofana, whose "engaging style and profound explanations of the scripture left a lasting impression on the community members present."

Next, he attended the closing of the Tafsir program at the Malam Musa Mosque, where the imam "shared his wisdom and guidance" with the attendees.

Rahman returned to the Kardo Mosque for the closing of their Tafsir session as well.

In the evening, Rahman had "the privilege of joining the Shia community of Ghana for the closing of their Tafsir program" at a mosque in Ayawaso East. He described this as "a beautiful experience to witness the diversity of Islamic traditions and the unity in our shared faith."

Throughout the day, Rahman said he was "struck by the deep sense of community, devotion, and spiritual nourishment that permeated these religious gatherings" in his constituency.

"The opportunity to participate in these programs and connect with fellow believers was truly a blessing," Rahman stated.

This type of active engagement with diverse religious communities demonstrates Rahman's commitment to representing all constituents in Ayawaso East.

In his quest for the parliamentary seat in the December 2024 Election, such outreach can be an important part of a political candidate's efforts to connect with local stakeholders.
