The Vice President of Ghana, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, on Friday, March 3, 2023, inaugurated the Kumasi Central Mosque, which he renovated with his funds.
The 7000-seater mosque, arguably the second largest in the country, has a 100-capacity ablution centre and 30 underground washrooms.
The renovation and refurbishment of the mosque were done by Bawumia in fulfilment of a promise he made to the Muslim community in the Ashanti Region.
A viral video sighted by GhanaWeb showed a sea of people, suspected to be Muslims, at the grounds of the Kumasi Central Mosque during the inauguration.
The crowd of people was all trying to enter the Mosque, where the vice president and other dignitaries were during the inauguration.
The video which was shared by the Member of Parliament for Nsawam Adoagyiri and Majority Chief Whip, Frank Annoh Dompreh was captioned “The DMD (Dr Mahamudu Bawumia) factor”.
