The inauguration ceremony drew Islamic scholars, village Alkalolu, imams and other dignitaries, who joined the community in celebrating the completion of the project.
Speaking at the event, Imam Muhammed Jallow of Youna village reminded worshippers that the mosque was built for the community to worship God. He stressed that the mosque does not belong to any individual—whether imam, alkalo or chief—but to all who come to pray and care for it. Jallow also cautioned against conflicts that often arise in mosques due to disputes between imams and committees.
Community leaders, including Ebou Jarju of Kamosor and Boto Tamba, alkalo of Jakin village, expressed gratitude to Abdullah Aid for constructing the mosque, describing it as a blessing for the community.
Muhammed Ade Ogiwa, Head of Operations for Abdullah Aid in The Gambia, speaking on behalf of CEO Alhaji Ousman Kinteh, noted that the organisation has built several mosques across the country. He highlighted visits to Foni, Nuimi, Soma, Jarra, Kiang and Basse, underscoring Abdullah Aid’s commitment to ensuring that communities nationwide benefit from its projects.
The inauguration of the Kamosor mosque adds to Abdullah Aid’s growing footprint in The Gambia, reflecting its mission to strengthen communities through faith, unity and development.
