I’M CONFIDENT, COMFORTABLE GETTING CLOSER TO CHRISTIANS – Bawumia

“Prophet Mohammed said to the Muslims that of all the religions and faiths of this world, Muslims should get closer to the Christians. That is what the Prophet Mohammed said and so I am very much comfortable and confident in getting close to Christians. My brothers and sister are Christians and I cannot say that I will not get close to them.”

The leader of the NPP also emphasized the importance of maintaining peaceful relations among different faiths in Ghana to prevent jihadists from exploiting disagreements between believers.

“There are many people who are uncomfortable with us [Muslims] getting closer [to Christians] and that is how jihadists and all of the extremists benefit. We are a peaceful country and we always get closer and so let us keep it that way.”
