KAKATA, Margibi County — Former Margibi District #4 representative aspirant Joseph Jimmy Sankaituah early Friday morning visited several mosques across Kakata to make donations to Muslim believers observing the holy month of .
Ramadan is a sacred period in Islam when Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, dedicate more time to prayer, and carry out acts of charity and kindness. In support of the Muslim community during this spiritual season, Sankaituah and members of his team personally delivered essential supplies to assist those participating in the fast.
The donations included sacks of water along with tea, milk, and sugar. The items were distributed among major mosques in the Kakata community, including Lango Town Mosque, Via Town Mosque, Madina Mosque, Fourteen Road Mosque, and Mandingo Quarter Mosque.
During the presentation at the Madina Mosque, Sankaituah explained that the gesture was motivated by appreciation and respect for the Muslim community rather than political ambition. He noted that his engagement with the Muslim community has been ongoing, including previous support such as providing prayer mats and assisting widows. He also encouraged members of the community to continue praying for peace and progress in the country.
The Imam of the Madina Mosque received the donations with appreciation and offered prayers for Sankaituah. He highlighted the shared moral values between Islam and Christianity, explaining that both religions promote similar teachings about good character, compassion, and respect for others.
The Imam also emphasized that acts of kindness go beyond religious identity and that doing good within any community is recognized and valued.
As the holy month of Ramadan continues, residents of Kakata are demonstrating the importance of religious tolerance and unity. Sankaituah’s visit serves as a reminder that during periods of spiritual reflection, the values of compassion, generosity, and humanity often rise above religious and political differences.
