Alhaji Yakubu Manu, National Chairman of the Mission, said the theme for the conference was most appropriate since education is very important to the growth of Islam. All Muslims, he said must support the college project to promote and develop both secular and Islamic education in Ghana. Sheikh Ishaak Nuamah, General Secretary of the Mission said youth capacity building was top on the agenda of the Mission. He said so far 350 youth have benefited from the capacity building programme.
