Mr. Emmanuel Antwi, Ghana's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, has commended the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission for its contribution to education and other humanitarian activities in Ghana. He said the commitment of the Mission to education had been tremendous, as they successfully established and maintained many education facilities across the country. The Diplomat was speaking during a courtesy visit to the Mission's headquarters in Accra. The visit was to deepen ties between the Mission and UN as global peace, tolerance, and injustice were at the centre stage of discussions. The visit also afforded the members of the Mission the opportunity to ask relevant questions about Ghana's role at the UN and be abreast of contemporary issues in the geopolitics of the world. 'I want to express appreciation to the Ahmadiyya Community for what you are currently doing in Ghana. I have been interested in your activities in the country for a long time, and your commitment towards education has been treme ndous,' he said. He said the Community took education very seriously, which was 'why I commend the Heads for their contribution, especially establishing schools in the Central and Ashanti Regions.' Mr Antwi also commended Maulvi Mohammed Bin Salih, the Head and Ameer of the Mission, for his commitment to peace, particularly at the National Peace Council. Maulvi Mohammed Bin Salih commended the Diplomat for the visit, expressing the Mission's concerns on prevailing issues on the global fronts, particularly the persecution of the Ahmadiyya Community and other minority groups in other countries. He said nobody must be subjected to any form of persecution due to their faith or belief, noting that the UN played a major role in preventing such persecutions from occurring. The Ameer said although there was relative peace in Ghana among various faith organisations, tolerance remained key to the Mission as it had extended a 'friendly hand' to people from other faith organisations. He said the Mission's commi tment to humanitarian activities remained resolute, adding that it would continuously ensure the establishment of more hospitals and schools across the country.
