The National Petroleum Authority (NPA), led by its Chief Executive, Mr Godwin Kudzo Tameklo, has held a special Muslim thanksgiving service at the National Mosque in Kanda as part of activities marking the Authority’s 20th anniversary. 

The visit formed part of the NPA’s nationwide appreciation to faith-based organisations for their support over the years.

During the service, the National Chief Imam, Sheikh Osmanu Nuhu Sharubutu, offered prayers for the Authority, calling on Allah to grant the Board, Management, and staff continued protection and wisdom. 

“May Allah guide the leadership of the NPA and bless the work they do for the people of Ghana,” the Chief Imam prayed.

Sheikh Sharubutu also extended prayers to the President. 

“May Allah continue to guide President John Dramani Mahama and his team, and grant them the strength to advance the cause of this country,” he added.

Addressing the gathering, Mr Tameklo expressed gratitude to the Muslim community for their warm reception and unwavering support over the years. 

He highlighted the value of interfaith unity in Ghana’s national life. 

“The harmony between Muslims and Christians in this country is unique and admirable,” he said. 

“Today, the National Mosque has opened its doors to Christians to join in prayer, and that is a powerful statement of who we are as Ghanaians.”

The NPA Chief Executive reaffirmed the Authority’s commitment to serving the public with dedication and transparency as it embarks on its next decade. 

The thanksgiving service formed part of a series of activities marking the NPA’s two decades of regulating Ghana’s downstream petroleum sector.
