“After 30 days of Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr is a very precious moment in every Moslem life. For this season, I’ve just decided to celebrate it with the kids of Odododiodioo Constituency, just to come together, make merry, and be happy in peace and harmony.”.

The celebration featured a range of engaging activities, including horse riding, dancing, bouncing castles, trampolining, face painting, and more, keeping the children entertained for hours. Mouth-watering dishes and child-friendly beverages added to the festive atmosphere, accompanied by music and entertainment.

Expressing his thoughts on the significance of the celebration, Mr. Sowah highlighted the importance of unity in Odododiodioo, a constituency often associated with political tension and violence.

He emphasized the need for peaceful engagement as the country approaches the 2024 general elections, encouraging the youth to participate in politics with a spirit of sportsmanship and cooperation.

His message resonated with the essence of Eid al-Fitr, a holiday that symbolizes community, charity, and gratitude.

The event not only brought joy to the children but also served as a platform for fostering goodwill and understanding among the residents of Odododiodioo.

Sowah’s initiative, which encourages a culture of peaceful coexistence and mutual respect in the constituency, sets a positive tone for the upcoming elections as the holiday season continues.

Emphasizing the value of community support and collaboration in creating a harmonious society, he expressed his gratitude to the event organizers, the many Chief Imams of Greater Accra and other regions of Ghana, parents, supporters, well-wishers, and all Ghanaians.
